Hard Knox

Career Marine fighter pilot instructor Col. Joe Knox (Robert Conrad) is grounded due to a medical condition and given two weeks' active duty leave. Returning to the military school from which he graduated, he's dismayed to learn that a lack of discipline and leadership has made its students a group of lazy, troublemaking malcontents. With the help of fellow alum Top Tuttle (Red West), Knox vows to knock the academy back into shape in time for a prestigious competition with a neighboring school.
