The adventures of motorcycle cops, from their academy days, to chasing crooked truckers.
Despite having inherently different personalities, Russ Hardley, Harry Whenlon, and Chuck O'Flair became friends when they met and went through training at the Los Angeles Police Academy together. Married Russ lacks confidence in his abilities but entered this career path to better his and wife Mary's lives. Harry is the conscientious one who will do anything for his friends and colleagues, especially as his LAPD officer father was killed in an on the job attack. And Chuck is the confident, egotistical know-it-all. While Russ outwardly is the one who may not have graduated in lacking that confidence, it was Chuck who almost did not make it through in challenging any authority over him, his actions which did and continue not to sit well with Lt. Redmon and Sgt. Jumbo Culdane who take any opportunity to show him up to prove a point. And even though Chuck thought he had an in with Russ' sister-in-law Jane Anderson in just being his cocky self, she had another idea in mind in encouraging Harry to be her boyfriend. Immediately following graduation, the three newly minted officers are assigned menial tasks, they each longing for something with more action. So when openings for motorcycle patrol for traffic duty are posted, they all apply, the increased pay which is also a motivating factor. While Chuck's cockiness continues even into this new assignment, he gets a more grounded perspective on his role in this career following a specific incident, he embarking on a new mission with respect to his friends and colleagues even at an increased risk to his own life.—Huggo
Chuck O'Flair and two buddies, Russ Hartley and Harry Whenlon, enter the Los Angeles Police Academy as cadets. Cocky and sure of himself, O'Flair almost gets washed out as unfit material. After they graduate, one of them accidentally stumbles on a gang of black marketeers and is murdered. O'Flair requests the assignment to track down the killer.—Les Adams <[email protected]>
