The movie is famous for containing Veronica Lake's first major film role. It is frequently said that she stole every scene she was in and her career took off shortly after. The same year, she was put into leading roles starting with her part in Sullivan's Travels. Lake would become one of the most popular and successful actresses of the early 1940s. Story follows the training and personal lives of three recruits in the Army Air Corps - a wealthy playboy, a college jock and an auto mechanic. Love interest is supplied by a female photographer (based loosely on Margaret Bourke-White) and a sultry blonde. LESS
