Major General Broulard (Adolphe Menjou) agrees with Mireau's reaction to the defeat and thinks it will be good for morale if three soldiers are executed. Colonel Dax (Kirk Douglas), the regiment's commander, who was present on the battlefield at the time of the attack insists on defending the three men in what turns out to be nothing but a show trial in which he is given no opportunity to provide the three soldiers with a proper defense.

Bilko in Outer Space

Ritzik and Grover have $600 that they plan to use to pay for their vacation in Hawaii. Bilko tries to get them to play cards with him but they do their best to avoid him. They manage to steer clear of him until he tricks them into signing up for a phony space program.

Thoughts

This was okay. I was hoping that part of the episode would involve Bilko going to outer space but that is not the case. I was hoping for something along the lines of The Outer Space Spirit or Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD 6 (Nov 1968). That is not what I got.
