thank u hazel for posting these episodes randall mackenzie was the greatest officer in the history of the plains wars
unlike custer mackenzie fought men not slaughtering vilages with only women and children
It's a good series if you don't mind the inaccuracies: by 1871+ Mackenzie would have two fingers missing, reverted back to the rank of Captain after his brevet appointment during the Civil War, and was probably enduring the hardships of numerous injuries incurred in Indian campaigns previous to this series. Mackenzie had an irascible spirit complicated by injuries but he was a scrupulously fair man when meting out frontier or military justice - an unquestionably courageous man of boundless value.
He was promoted to colonel again in 1867 in command of the 41st Infantry regiment then transferred to the cavalry. Make general in 1883.
I. Didn't know that y'all were living in 1870!!!!!
do you know Dick Bush?
was shown on irish tv on a tuesday evening.sitting here watching it 54 years later what memories since that evening since in 1960.please remember ireland only fot its first tv station on jan 1 1960 so we were a bit behind the usa.
Noel Gorry A bit ???, lol, and we still have a bunch of Gombeens misrunning our Country.
@@serberious heavy ? pack up your troubles, in your old kit bag
@@serberious for clarity to others. A Gombeen man is a pejorative Hiberno-English term used in Ireland for a shady, small-time "wheeler-dealer" businessman or politician who is always looking to make a quick profit, often at someone else's expense or through the acceptance of bribes. Its origin is the Irish word "gaimbín", meaning monetary interest. alternatively, gobshite
@@WOLFROY47 Thanks for the explanation.
I was a member of 3rd sqdn 4th CAV in Vietnam 1968 - 19969. ( nickname was Mckenzie's Raiders)
Good find. Haven't seen this series in YEARS. Nice.
I never heard of this until I accidentally found it and... I am impressed
Same here. Me too.
you must be very easily impressed, this is not a very good show
@@gerrydooley951what's good then
It's like a radio show! The narrator carries the whole load, for the first three minutes! And carries it awesomely!
That's Art Gilmore. He handles the same duties on Highway Patrol. Think he also does some Looney Tunes.
Will be watching more of this . Just watched Episodes 01 and loved it!
thank you for sharing the westerns, my compliments
what a great show , thanks
Thanks for uploading.
All the men should spill the beans simultaneously.
Great episode, thanks.🤠.
Outstanding!

Una de las mejores series que tengo 50 capitulos las veo siempre soy de argentina saludos😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Thanks for the upload .
Thanks for uploading this bepisode
Thanks for uploading. I had not seen these episodes since I was a kid.
Me too
Subscribed after listening to a great detailed lecture on the history of this impeccable and brave soldier.
In the days when no man left behind. Not now.
Tengo 65 y son mis favoritas gracias
I never saw this series when I was a kid in the 50s..Mackenzie was the US Army's best Indian fighter...Custer couldnt hold a candle to him
It is stylish to belittle Custer. His cavalry charge at Gettysburg was instrumental in saving the battle for the Union. Custer is the one who intersected Lee's march to the mountains which resulted in Appomatox. Custer is the one who covered the retreat of the Union Army from Bull Run and ensured the Confederates did not pursue all the way back to Washington. Revisionist history paints Custer as a fool and idiot. He was not. There is a reason he was promoted to Major General during the Civil War and was held in high regard by Grant and Sheridan. Few are aware he testified before Congress that the Indians were being treated unfairly by U.S. policy. Yes he split his force at Little Big Horn and paid the price. However, according to the civilians running the Bureau of Indian Affairs, fewer than 1000 males under age 40 had left the Sioux reservation along with women and children. Custer erroneously trusted that false information. If it had been true, his decision would have been a good one instead of a tragic mistake.
custer killed native women thus his knickname women killed
mackenzie got quannah parker to come in no easy job
Good show it be nice to days tv show was like this one
I'm watching this show right now on the digital tv channel this tv i like all the classic western tv shows that air on the digital tv channels
Thanks so very much Hazel for posting these fine episodes of this great tv series. A bit of trivia to note is that the fort used as home base here is the very same fort in the Rin Tin Tin series. Fort Apache located on Corriganville movie ranch Santa Susanna, California. Tanks again.
Yes, that is the same place.
Spielberg should do a remake of this episode ... and name it "Saving Trooper Ryan" ... Wayne
Think this would work in trying to take back our Country from the snowflakes, Antifa, BLM and the others?
@@55Quirll Those losers don't own the country yet .. They are actually in the minority, but they have the loudest voices .. The Trump admin should have gone in much harder on the domestic terrorists known as ANTIFA and BLM, and officially designated them as such .. Maybe, you're right, and it'll now require action such as Mckenzie's Raiders took to beat them. 😉
Like 'ElCid48' I hadn't seen these since I was a little kid, maybe 5 or 6, I remember little about them except the name and the theme music.....I'm glad to refresh my memory :D
By the way, this is a true story. Ranald Slidell MacKenzie graduated from West Point as first in his class in 1862, during the Civil War. He fought in every major campaign with such courage, daring, and skill that he was quickly promoted upward, obtaining the rank of Major General by the end of the war. He was wounded six times, loosing two fingers in one incident. At the end of the war, General Ulysses S. Grant, the commander of the Union Army wrote that MacKenzie was the most promising officer in the Army, and that he had earned each one of his promotions due to personal bravery, ability, and deeds, not through favoritism, or political influence which was the norm in those days.
Yet, it is not for the Civil War that MacKenzie is best known for. It is for his superb Indian fighting after the war.
After the war, MacKenzie like all officers, was reduced in rank - in his case to the rank of Captain, and assigned to the southern and northern Great Plains, where he earned a reputation as a brilliant commander, and an expert on Indian tactics, and in anticipating what they would do in any given situation. His exploits were such, that he again rose quickly in rank, and became a legend among his fellow officers. When he retired he was a brigadier general.
Ranald Slidell Mackenzie’s remarkable exploits would be well worth your time to read up on. . .

Cool show. Recondo.
Looks like a great western.
Not sure how great it was. Kind of corny.....but it was the first western....heck, the first tv show I ever saw, really.
I was no older than 5 or 6 when I saw it first. I'd given up seeing it again.
it's not
Read the book lance and carbine written about Fort Sill, Oklahoma Territory where Colonel McKenzie was in command.
The book describes many of the incidents that occurred in the Wichita Mountain area. Most of the book was taken from official after action reports written by Colonel McKenzie that are in the Ft Sill archives
Hmm First episode of unknown series... Looks promising, hope it holds up.
Hazel thanks for posting MacKenzie's Raiders. I love the 30 minute serials.
The ending of this serial is being cut short and sometimes the conclusion is up in the air? Thanks
Colonel Mackenzie commands a regiment of 900 men. I doubt that he is going to approach a squad of men standing on a torch, and happen to know their names. Actually, as a colonel he would not address enlisted men at all. He would have addressed a subordinate officer, give him directions, and ask him to select five men.
Thanks for the upload. Is it possible for you to upload Episode 39 entitled "Devil Trap". Thank you.
Ahh shit ! , where did all those boyhood years go ?, how did they go by so quickly ?.
Why are some of the shows are cut off by atleast 2 minutes.
people used to get a charge out of watching this
people used to watch the test pattern also
Why was Mexico referred to as “the enemy” in the opening sequence?
What a coward commander.. abandon his men in battle..who would follow him next time out?..
Had never heard of this tv series until I discovered this channel. Maybe it wasn't shown in the UK? Loving this series but....sadly....episodes #25 to #38 all have the endings clipped by a couple of minutes.
Wish that the U.S.Govt. would do that again. The original Texas Rangers had that authority and kicked ass. We, the United States citizens NEED that again! NOW!!!
It appears that the politicians were using Mackenzie to do what needed to be done but were unwilling to take responsibility. Much like politicians use SEALS, Rangers, Delta Force, and Green Berets today.
RAIDM.. Clan in World of Tanks.. Mackenzie"s..
I have one question about a discrepancy. Didn't the cavalry/soldiers all have military sidearms. In a covered holster? No bullets on a belt, but bullets kept in a pouch. Or am I mistaken? And is this historically correct? I sincerely doubt that.
wheres the wall?????
I'm looking through channels and waiting for someone to load all of Tales of Wells Fargo seasons and episodes. There are some on CZcams but most of them say that due to my country's copyright it can't be load, BUT they were PRODUCED AND FILM in my country(USA).
@1:30...... That's the same ranch in the TV show Gunsmoke ......early episodes.....that's BS....leaving their guy there......
@Hazel Zamora - Ican't find Hazel , that you've ever replied back but I'm going to try anyway again I hadn't to stop the show to* 😊thank you. I I'm not done yet with the show but I can tell they're good ones I'm sure I'll be back😏 Hay.
Well tht jst goes to show u nobdy eva took baths lol he still had the boot polish on his neck from the night before 🤣🤣
Saben si esta serie se puede encontrar en español? No sabía de ella y tiene muy buena pinta 👍
Yo la veía en Cuba en español antes de 1959
@@helvioalonsojr8229 ...intentaré buscarla entonces...veremos si hay suerte 👍🙂
Si yo tengo 50 capítulos en español saludos Daniel de argentina😊😊😊😊
@@danielcrocenzi serías tan amable de decirme si me la puedo descargar en alguna plataforma o que esté a la venta en algún sitio? La recomiendas? Un saludo 👋
Búscala en tu celular y pone series antiguas del lejano oeste ahí las vas a conseguir o televisor lo mismo en tutú saludos Daniel suerte
Maybe should have watched the movie first before committing 😁
First if all, there are 39 episodes of this series not 38. Also Episode 15 is a duplicate of Episode 7 - Hostage. And Episode 16 is a duplicare of Episode 8 - Eastern Colonel. So this is definitely not the full series. You are three short. The 39th episode, by the way, is titled Devil's Trap.
get over yourself, why don't you post something instead of complaining?
The leader is a punk and practices no strategy.
He did not even shoot their horses and then the thugs are an easy target.
I can tell you from experience officers cover their own backsides and care not for regular soldiers....officers in my experience have no integrity and grow up to be terrible role models and community leaders.
It is the regular men who become better men...
I suffer from injuries caused by a high ranking officer...I was bullied and threatened to keep my mouth shut...if I knew then what I know now....
The series is about a cavalry officer who discharged himself well as a courageous, competent and sincere officer with outstanding work during civil war, Texas border patrol and successful campaigns to his credit against the Comanches in the Panhandle, the Apaches in the Texas-New Mexico bordering Mexico and the Northern Cheyennes in Indian Territory. Due to a head injury suffered during a combat fall, he suffered from neural complications that forced him to retire prematurely. The mini series of 26 minute episodes has not done justice to the man though its photography and battle and fort sets are of above average standards. The stories lacked cogent plots and the story-line much too slender for the series to sustain interest. The only remarkable episode is the 8th/16th one titled, "Eastern Colonel", and his mixed feelings of admiration and adherence to rules found to be difficult to reconcile with the ground situation at the border, where the continuing problems to this day are cross-border migration and crime heightened by political tensions between the US and Mexico.
That is a excellent synopsis you put together Chandra. Your comment should be highlighted so all can see it. Thanks
Madam, you are welcome.
I heartily concur. The series at least drew attention to the record of this effective cavalryman who more than once rose to leadership.
I guess I watched all of the Tombstone Territory's now so it's back to Mackenzie's Raiders. czcams.com/video/iBcmvzTDzEQ/video.html
What if the enemy hears the narrator or background music?
boy, that's a good point
And now Trump wants to build a wall across the Rio Grande!!!
Yep, that would have solved a lot of problems - then and now - and Mexico will pay for it.
a wall across the river would be called a dam ? try a border fence, or, along the border, russia tried that, are you a bunch of pinkoes ? do you see how non sensical it all is
this episode is bad it,s clip,t in several places.
Be thankful she gaves something or a show 2 watch ungreatful asol.
what is truly amazing is that 170 years ago it would seem the United States had a better method of dealing with illegal immigrants and criminal activity on the Mexican border than IT DOES TODAY.......
I've watched about 12 of these and it's pretty bad. I'm a fan of the ZIV productions, they are kind of to TV what Republic was to movies. ZIV puts out professional, well made, entertaining fare but this show suffers from miscasting. Richard Carlson is a B-grade leading man but he's a contemporary actor and looks very out of place in a western. He comes across as a little light in the loafers and there's no real supporting cast to speak of.. I don't really care about the historical inaccuracies, you expect that, Carlson is just a very weak leading man.
Never saw this...good series, thanks for the posting. :)
+David Craig Yea, this is a good one. I like a lot of the old stuff you can find here on youtube.
David Craig ...aside from the fact that McKinsey's Raiders were notorious OUTLAWS! Killing & raiding families, settlements, & towns without honor or right...
What???
