The Phil Silvers Show 4.34

The Bilko Boycott

Corporal Henshaw decides he's had enough of Bilko making money off the men in the platoon. Henshaw starts a gamblers anonymous group which is so successful that Bilko has to look elsewhere for victims. He turns to the women stationed at Camp Fremont. He sweet talks his past way past Major Allenby, the commanding officer of the WACs. He doesn't run into any trouble until he goes to collect from the women's barracks and gets trapped there when it is put under quarantine.

Thoughts
