Past and present are about to collide head-on, as they are wont to do in a very special bivouac area known as....the Twilight Zone.The show's teaser, set June 25, 1876, depicts an army scout, a sergeant and a trooper finding evidence of Indians.
Three United States Army National Guard soldiers (Connors, McCluskey and Langsford) are in a M3 Stuart tank participating in a war game near the site of the Battle of the Little Bighorn, where Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer made his last stand.
As they follow the route, they hear strange things such as Indian battle cries and horses running when nobody is there.
The captain and lieutenant soon walk past the battlefield's large stone obelisk carved with the names of Custer and all the soldiers who died with the general at the Little Big Horn.
Dennet, however, seems unable or unwilling to accept that possibility and simply states that it is "too bad" his missing National Guardsmen could not have taken their tank into the 1876 battle.
