Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Army Capers was the bland British title of the raucous Republic musical The Wac From Walla Walla. Hillbilly songstress Judy Canova is the eponymous heroine, who accidentally enlists in the army at the outset of the film. Canova proves the equal of any man in uniform when she foils the insidious schemes of enemy agents Roy Barcroft and Allen Jenkins. And, of course, she finds true love, in the form of tall, dark and handsome lieutenant Steve Dunne. Judy Canova gets to sing four songs in this sappy but successful military farce.
