PlotFormer Army soldier Jerry Jones (George Murphy) is now a Broadway producer. When the Second World War breaks out, he calls to his old war buddies to help him put together a show that features all former servicemen. Meanwhile, his playboy son Johnny (Ronald Reagan) has finally fallen in love. His heart throb is Eileen (Joan Leslie). But Eileen�s father is a friend and cast member of Jerry�s show. Eddie Dibble (Charles Butterworth) is aware of Johnny�s philandering ways and is not fond of the romance. Much of the show centers around the antics of trying to get a group of men, who are not trained professionals ready to perform on Broadway. But the show-stopper happens at the end when Kate Smith (herself) finishes the performance with her famous, �God Bless America�.
