The Adventures of a Rookie

A terrific new comedy twosome in a riot of laughs, gags and gals!

Two bumbling GIs manage to get themselves invited to a dinner party at a boarding house "for women only". When the cook comes down with scarlet fever, the authorities quarantine the house and the pair find themselves locked up in a house full of attractive women.
