A silly little comedy short. Snub Pollard joins the US Army in World War 1 and soon, this "Doughboy" (as US soldiers were called at the time) has been sent to the front line even if his training is a series of disasters. His front line service is also a disaster, he spends most of his time trying to avoid being captured by the Germans.
The film has plenty of inventive comedy situations though it does start to get a bit tedious and repetitive by the end. Not a top tier silent comedy but perfectly fine as a shirt feature and does raise plenty of smiles.
