No more reviews of Jimmy Stewart movies for the duration. I guess considering his job in the army we are fortunate he came back to make more movies. What this blurb doesn't mention is that he failed the army physical for being underweight for his height so he hired a personal trainer to help him bulk up to make the grade. Mission accomplished.
Another interesting aspect of Jimmy Stewart’s entry into the Army was initially he was drafted. When he had his physical after being drafted is when he fail due to being underweight. It was the second time around when he volunteered when he finally met the weight requirement.
