The comic couple play Puccinelli and Korwin -- pals who join the army and get into a load of trouble on a military training base. While Puccinelli becomes a first sergeant, his buddy can't rise above the status of private because of his constant bumbling. Amid the clowning, Puccinelli tries to win over a beautiful young woman named Helen. The film's funny highlights include a sequence involving a non-cooperative soda machine, Jerry Lewis performing "The Navy Gets the Gravy But the Army Gets the Beans," and the team's impersonation of the Bing Crosby-Barry Fitzgerald characters from the classic film "Going My Way."

Reviews for At War With the Army
Sets the low standard for all the team's future comedies by Lewis doing the physical comedy and Martin operating as the aloof straight man.
