Bilko's Sharpshooter
Sgt Bilko thinks that her found a sharpshooter (Pvt Emile Schneider) to beat Sgt Ritzik's sharpshooter (Pvt Pete Masters). He soon discovers that the shooting he witnessed wasn't the handy-work of Schneider but of WAC Pvt Polly Porter.
Porter is about to get transferred to a base in Texas until Bilko finds out that she is the real sharpshooter. He arranges for a contest between her and Ritzik's sharpshooter but things don't go exactly as planned after Porter and Masters start making eyes at one another and missing every shot that they take.
This episode was kind of silly but good in my book. It all seemed to be of one piece and didn't feel like it was a combination of two disparate plots, as some episodes do.
