This Is the Army

Songs from two Irving Berlin stage shows─"Yip Yip Yaphank" and "This Is the Army"─were blended into this morale-boosting WWII musical tribute to America's armed forces. Ronald Reagan, Joan Leslie, George Murphy, and Alan Hale head the nostalgic treat's all-star cast; featured numbers include Kate Smith singing "God Bless America" and Berlin himself performing "Oh, How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning." 112 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English.
