The Lieutenant Wore Skirts
1956, English. Directed by Frank Tashlin.
He's got that "itch" again...this time it's for Sheree.
A middle-aged ex-serviceman who plans to re-enlist is shocked to learn that not only did he fail his medical exam, his wife has enlisted - and is really making the grade in the Air Force. Unhappy to be a "house husband," he flies to Hawaii to be near her - and also to hatch a scheme to get her discharged.
