Ernest G. Bilko es un sargento del ejército de los Estados Unidos que se vale de su posición para hacer toda clase de pequeños trapicheos, incluyendo las apuestas ilegales, en una base militar de Kansas. Su oficial superior, el comandante Hall, permanece ignorante de todo esto. Los problemas se sucederán con la llegada de un viejo rival del sargento: el Mayor Thorn.
Dos cómicos de primera, Steve Martin (Esposa por sorpresa, Grand Canyon, el alma de la ciudad, El padre de la novia (1991)) y Dan Aykroyd (Paseando a miss Daisy, Los cazafantasmas) son los protagonistas de esta divertida comedia sobre el ejército, con un guión muy ágil.
This movie is a remake of the hit series which starred, Phil Silvers as Sgt. Bilko. In this movie, Bilko tuns the motor pool and has all sorts of scams going on like gambling, renting out military vehicles, and so on, which are all violations. However, his commanding officer, Colonel Hall overlooks them, cause he is more concerned about his future, cause a lot of bases are being closed, and the inspector, Major Thorn was on the verge of doing that. But when he heard that Bilko was on the base, he turned into a mad dog. It seems that Thorn was a "thorn" in Bilko's side many years ago but through a series of misunderstandings, Thorn was accused of carrying out or being the brains behind one of Bilko's schemes, he would be sent to Greenland and his career has not gone as he hoped it would and now wants revenge on Bilko.
