His First Command (1929)

An army post in Kansas is the scene of this drama. There are a good many shots of parades and drills and steeplechases, spectacular and diverting. Otherwise it is a pretty sorry affair, with the rookie hero rushing in at the last moment to save the colonel's little niece from being trampled by a regiment of horses. William Boyd (the screen star) finds a new personality with a nice drawly, American voice. All Talkie.
