Ten Gentlemen from West Point

In the early 19th Century, Congress appropriated the money to build the school, but opponents who believed it to be an illegitimate expansion of the powers of the federal government decided to sabotage the school. They put the hard-as-nails Major Sam Carter in charge of the academy, and he ruthlessly put the recruits through grueling training -- until only ten prospective soldiers remained.

The two vie for Carolyn Bainbridge, while they, along with the other eight, try convince Carter that the school is worth keeping.
