Combat!: The Outsider (1966) (TV)

This is about Culley, a replacement. He was a small farmer in West Virginia. He doesn't like to be a soldier and refuses to engage in social intercourse with the other members of his new platoon. In combat, he follows orders very strictly and does not go out of his way to help a fellow soldier. He is saving money to buy a tractor. His colleagues develop a strong aversion to him.

One of the sadder episodes, with a heavy tragicity about it.
