At the dance
Near the end Richard Widmark And James Stewart are trying to get these young officers to dance with Linda Crystal. My question is WHY DIDN'T JS DANCE WITH HER? SHE WAS HIS DATE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

sharethe idea was to have people be shown what happened to Linda was regrettable but not something she should be ashamed of
shareMcCabe may have mentioned to Elena that he didn't dance.
Late reply but this was a formal dance. At such dances it was not the custom nor was it proper for a lady to dance only with her escort. Perhaps she would save the last dance with her escort but not all dances. This is assuming James Stewart's character could dance.
I actually went to a few such dances while in scholl and there are a lot of rules and customs. See,for example, Fort Apache.
