You can't realize if this is comedy or lord knows what. Nevertheless, it's an entertaining film with Dan Dailey in fine form as the first of his town to enlist in the army when war breaks out. Anxious to do combat duty, Dailey spends most of the war at home as a gun instructor, frustrating him, his family and the neighbors.
When opportunity strikes and he is sent overseas, he oversleeps on a plane and lands in France only to become involved with the underground and a major mission.
Of course, we can all resent how the army reacts to our exhausted hero by feeding him liquor continuously. This even continues at home.
Along the way, he is given constant promotions in his frustrations.
