Synopsis

A dejected Beetle is looking for a way to escape Camp Swampy and needs money for his two-week furlough. Killer gets a bright idea out of a magazine: an amateur photographer's contest with $1,000 in prize money. Cosmo suggests he enter the photo contest using Zero as a model in parachute shots.

Production notes

Beetle Bailey was the half-asleep soldier who only kept his eyes open for work, and only so he could avoid it. Beetle's main foil at Camp Swampy was Sgt. Orville Snorkel, a tough regular army man who was often bested by Beetle. The commanding officer on the quiet base was the lisping Gen. Halftrack, who concerned himself more with his golf game than with his troops.
