Fort Laramie - "Young Trooper" (Old Time Radio, 1956)

Fort Laramie presents “Young Trooper,” episode 20 of the CBS western series, originally broadcast June 10, 1956. Raymond Burr stars as Captain Lee Quince in this episode written by Kathleen Hite and produced and directed by Norman Macdonnell.

After a train derailment and raids on nearby settlers, a lone survivor named Jed arrives at Fort Laramie claiming to be 18 and asking to enlist. His skill with a horse and a rifle earns attention, but Captain Quince must decide whether there is a place for the determined young newcomer among the cavalry.

Fort Laramie presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned and mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
