  Ulzana's Raid
Ulzana knows soldiers will be detailed to return the woman to Fort Lowell, thus dividing the troop and making them easy subjects for ambush.
The reason is obvious: if the point-of-view had been that of Ulzana and his Apache war-party as they go about their burning and killing, then the parallels to the infamous Mai Lai Massacre and other search and destroy missions by American forces in Nam might have been clearer.
Ulzana (Joaquin Martinez) is like Nature and is purely a feature of his environment, at times as static and inscrutable as a red desert rock, at others as lucid and mobile as a prairie creek.

Like The Wild Bunch before it, Ulzana's Raid removes the sentimentality of Western ideals in its harsh portrayal of the violent world, though unlike Sam Peckinpah, Aldrich leaves the violence off-screen and allows the audience to see only the horrific aftermath.

From The Movie Guide: "One of the greatest films made by often overlooked director Robert Aldrich, ULZANA'S RAID isn't a true war film, but within its traditional western format, Aldrich and screenwriter Alan Sharp transform the material into an effective and damning allegory of America's involvement in Vietnam.
On the trail it becomes apparent that Lancaster and Davison hold radically different views of Martinez's actions --- the scout is cold and cynical, while Davison's Christian morality is incensed by the Apache atrocities.
However, as an allegorical indictment of the Vietnam War, ULZANA'S RAID avoids the preachy stance of similarly themed westerns such as SOLDIER BLUE, benefiting from Aldrich's stark, violent treatment of Sharp's well-developed script.
