Synopsis by Hal Erickson
After Judy Hensler (Jeri Weil) delivers a class report about her dad's courageous activities in WWII, Beaver (Jerry Mathers) informs his schoolmates that his dad Ward (Tony Dow) was likewise a war hero -- and in fact, he's got a whole bunch of neat medals and stuff. Only upon his arrival home does Beaver learn that, although his father did indeed serve in the South Pacific during the "big one," he was actually a Seabee -- an engineer who never saw combat. Facing the prospect of public humiliation, Beav concocts his wildest tall tale yet!
