Sergeant Kennedy Bets On Fifty Letters From War Ad
In a Paris hospital scene a young sergeant Kennedy and Corporal Perecelli bet on sending a personal ad from a New York newspaper to lure fifty replies from women. Kennedy plans a sharper notice and enlists the help of a press office, while a transfer to Paris awaits him. The exchange reveals wartime romance, gallant bravado, and the city’s media pulse as Kennedy seizes a chance for escape and attention.
