Playful sketches poke fun at army life on a base in a quirky style. A bugler hijacks a jukebox to sound reveille. A private can’t recall the number after “3,” then quits before the $32 question. In the mess hall, machine‑gunners fire at meals while bombers snag falling biscuits. The infantry marches, passing a billboard that reads “next time, take the train.”
