Just how do you say goodbye to your sweetie in the navy before he goes off to fight World War II? Answer: Why, with yodeling, of course! This film is what it isno comment I could make would be sufficient or desired. Though I dont know what she sees in that sailorhe cant yodel worth a darn. And whats with the ominous music behind the card that says The End? Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: *****. Weirdness: *****. Historical Interest: *****. Overall Rating: *****.

A young woman yodels her man to war. Really quite charming. Newfound potential in goodbye scenes!
