Tribes (film)

"Tribes" also known as "The Soldier Who Declared Peace" (UK) is a 1970 television film, broadcast as an "ABC Movie of the Week" directed by Joseph Sargent.

This drama tells the story of Private Adrian, a young United States Marine Corps Vietnam war draftee who, despite being an anti-war hippie, reluctantly reports to boot camp to fulfill his duty. Adrian naturally excels as a leader, though his pacifist ideology presents continuing conflicts between himself and his Drill Instructor. Adrian's Drill Instructor quickly recognizes Adrian's leadership qualities, but is conflicted as he grows to respect Adrian while also realizing that he represents everything Adrian opposes.

This film is notable for its stars, Jan-Michael Vincent and Darren McGavin, and for the fact the writers won Emmy Awards for their teleplay.
