Good when Dino is on screen

Dean Martin is very funny as a frustrated office sergeant in this Army comedy.

Polly Bergen is beautiful and she sings a song with Dean, while Dean sings one song alone. Jerry 'The Schmuck' Lewis is much less impressive.

Film was released in 1950, though the print you'll see looks more like the movie was made in 1939. But at least it's funny.

Base office scenes are great and magnify the kind of stuff that goes on in the military. I worked in Air Force administration and it was silly at times. My favorite line is when the captain tells Dino to send in "morning reports the night before".
