Pretty good WW2-era, morale-booster film. It's not The Duke's best film, but it is entertaining, with plenty of action and romance, and has a patriotic message.

The John Wayne film I’m most keen on seeing is “Girls Demand Excitement” (1931), a college comedy-drama, which features Virginia Cherrill (Chaplin’s leading lady in City Lights) and Marguerite Churchill, Wayne’s leading lady in “The Big Trail,” as well as the wife of cowboy star George O’Brien.

my Dad and his brother were both in the 101st CB, but the Navy needed machinists in bad way so my Dad switched to the regular Navy
Buzz was on Saipan when my Dad's ship stopped by to pick up supplies and the Capt actually gave my Dad 24hrs shore leave to see his brother
i even have a clipping from the local paper saying same
by the grace of God they both came home

Not The Duke’s best, but a good war flick, and a good part for William Frawley too (Fred of Fred and Ethel...). Really dating myself ....
