Red Skies Of Montana.

Cliff Mason, a veteran smokejumper foreman, is called out with a crew on a fire, despite the fact that they have not rested in three days. Cliff is the only one to survive, but he cannot remember how he got separated from his men. Cliff's paranoia grows that he might be thought a coward who deserted his men despite the assurances of his devoted wife Peg and Dick, who let him return to work only as supervisor of training. Cliff recalls that when the fire began to race along the treetops, all of them had reached the rockslide where he urged them to lie down.
