"The Outposter" (1972), also known as "The Sentry" and "Space Patrol," tells the story of Mark Ruz, a resident of one of Earth's colonies who miraculously survives an attack by the aggressive Meda V'Dan civilization. As Earth forcibly sends its overpopulated citizens to distant colonies without support or protection (known as the "Space Patrol"), these roaming squads of the advanced aggressive civilization take advantage of the situation. Determined to put an end to this, Mark Ruz embarks on a mission, only to find that the most difficult battles await him back on Earth. This classic theme of responsibility and duty, prevalent in Dixon's work, transforms the border guards into a new aristocracy. In his quest to protect the colonists under his command, the border guard wages war against the hostile civilization, even if it means breaking away from the cautious authorities on Earth.
