kj3553,

Actually, I think the film you are referring to was called 'The Horse Soldiers'.

It also starred William Holden .....

It did resort to a number of CW cliches, but was a fine movie none the less.

It was based on a true event.  Grieson's Raid through Mississippi to disrupt Confederate communications and serve as a diversion for Grant's movements on Vicksburg.
