Battle Cry #16
A group of Apache Indians led by the warrior Geronimo plan an attack on American soldiers to avenge their separation from their families and strike terror into settlers in the Arizona territory. Two American soldiers devise a trap using a female soldier named Betsy positioned as bait, which succeeds in ambushing the first wave of Apache warriors. Geronimo, moved by the courage of his fallen young chief, decides to launch a full-scale battle against the American forces to instill fear and assert Apache dominance in their land.
