Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The Range Busters-John "Dusty" King, David Sharpe, Max "Alibi" Terhune-do their bit for the war effort in Texas to Bataan. The plot concerns the theft of a shipment of horses, originally destined for the US Army overseas. But instead of the usual home-grown rustlers, the villains are a gang of Axis spies, overseen by the seemingly innocent Cookie (Escolastico Baucin), a Japanese agent posing as a Filipino. Naturally, the bad guys are no match for our true-blue, 100% All-American heroes. Texas to Bataan represented stuntman David Sharpe's first appearance as a Range Buster, replacing Ray "Crash" Corrigan.
