It is the Second World War and Norman Pitkin (Norman Wisdom) joins, or rather is conscripted into the army, and after a zany time at boot camp, is shipped off to German occupied France. Lucky for Norman, he's a dead ringer for a Nazi general, and low and behold, he is able to foil the Teutonic general's war plan and returns home a hero!
