The day before he reports to duty with the National Guard, Gus Doaks, an obnoxious waiter at a French restaurant, serves up a disaster to a Major and his girlfriend. Naturally, the Major is Gus' new commanding officer. Under the impression that the Guard is a military camping trip with golf and ukulele sing-alongs, Gus finds himself at odds with his Sergeant, who is more than willing to offer Doaks up for a "Major" sacrifice.

Exteriors were shot on location at Fort Hamilton in Brooklyn.
