Released September 24, 1943
Featuring Moe, Larry and Curly
Columbia
16.8 min. (Short Subject)

The Stooges are the Wrong Brothers, working on their revolutionary airplane "The Buzzard," which they hope to sell to the Army & thus avoid the draft. When the Buzzard flops, the boys go into the service & have to deal with a fiery drill sergeant.

Judy Malcolm and Sethma Williams were credited as 'Girls in Hangar' in The Three Stooges Scrapbook, but never appeared in the short. They do appear in the lobby cards, one-sheet poster and publicity photos. Jules White's shooting script contains no clues as to the roles Judy and Sethma would have portrayed.

The Army drill scenes are stock footage lifted from BOOBS IN ARMS (1940). Presumably, Columbia did this to save money during World War II; but, there is nothing in White's files that provides a definitive reason.
