Surgical hijinks unfold as ace Army cutters subvert the Korean War, drive lieutenants over the edge, chase after wary nurses, and have fun with syringes during an epic football game--all the while remembering that they're living in the backdrop of a seemingly senseless war zone. (official distributor synopsis)
