| Summary |
Sgt. Bilko is a schemer, swindler and an absolute laugh. Bilko runs a profiteering platoon in the Army and every money making scheme that he thinks he can pull off. Midnight cruises on landing craft, tank rides, poker games, and an interesting deal with local service stations for spare parts for jeep tires. |
