The film centers on U.S. Army Sgt. Bilko, a conniving motor pool supervisor who uses his position to finance various get-rich-quick schemes, including illegal gambling, at a Kansas military base. After his old nemesis shows up, intent on ruining his career and stealing his girlfriend Bilko must take extra care to cover his tracks while concocting the perfect scheme to take down his foe.
Aside from the sheer insanity of trying to leap into the shoes of the irreplaceable Phil Silvers, surely Martin should have recognized that the film had no script, no gags and no discernible point.
Though Martin and a solid supporting cast produce a few scattered moments of near-hilarity, for the most part the terrain here is as flat as it gets.
