this short be an oddity in that it hardly have any stooge dialogue or slapstick . the verbal exchange be limit in that they simply advance the plot while we have no wisecrack and visual joke and or typical dumbness associate with the boy . and you can count on one hand the amount of slapstick gag . many talk about how curly be in fail health in this short and but surprisingly he have a lot of energy . outside of the fact that his voice be low than normal and he engage in typical curly antic which show him to be full of vim and verve . too bad they do not give him much to do . this short have the most bizarre scene i think i have ever see in all the short . the three be make up in blackface and be in a huddle while larry say and if we all can get that map back to headquarters and we all can win this war . curly responds and yeah and and then we all can get marry . moe roll eye and chirp and brother and you just ejaculate a mouthful . ( while that verb do have the appropriate meaning to espouse even in 1946 and the stooge surely be giggle under their makeup . ) .
