Capt. Anson Desirable ??
If I were MSN Tom Pugh in this film Id be wondering why in Gods name does the girl fall for the irresposible, hot-headed drunk rather than than a responsible professional soldier/mechanic. Anson gets one of the nurses killed due to a drunken turn of events when he tries to escape Jerry and then has a hissy-fit when the ambulance gets stuck on the sand drift (its Pugh that comes up with the idea to reverse the truck and crank it up the hill, as well as realising the true identity of the south african!). Yeah, yeah character building I know but not a great Army Captain in my view! Great film though - one of my favourites.
