Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaStan Laurel once remarked that Richard Cramer, seen here as the abusive foster father, had absolutely no sense of humor, and played everything straight. Stan used him when he needed a serious character who wouldn't try to get a laugh.
- GoofsDirector George Marshall, playing the fearsome army chef, wears civilian dress slacks behind his apron. That's because the actor assigned to the part no-showed and Marshall literally stepped in for him at the last minute.

Featured review
An average series entry still has the unmistakable touch of comic genius.
Early Laurel & Hardy feature isn't among their best, but still provides entertaining viewing.
Story begins with America entering the First World War, and L&H conscripted into the army after being spotted loafing on a park bench. Action moves to training camp, then onto the trenches in France before returning to America. Here Laurel & Hardy find themselves responsible for a dead army buddy's little girl, whom they must return to her rightful guardian.
Film isn't as polished as later entries, and certainly can't compete with the likes of 'Sons of the Desert'. Even so, the continual odd-couple bickering between the two ensures plenty of laughs. The scene where they go to the Bank to get a loan on the strength of their mobile food business is out of the top draw - if there is a better comedy duo in movie history I've yet to see them.
