With the help of Technical Fairy First Class, the disgruntled malcontent Private Snafu gets to see what things would be like if he were allowed to run the army.

Private Snafu, Technical Fairy First Class

Frank Capra, who was in charge of The Army-Navy Screen Magazine during the Second World War, is credited with having invented the character of Private SNAFU (a play on the army acronym for "Situation Normal- All Fouled Up"). The character model sheet was originated by Art Heineman and Chuck Jones.
