Wallace Beery takes on saboteurs, the Army and Marjorie Main in this patriotic war drama, costarring Lewis Stone and Oscar-winner Donna Reed in one of her earliest roles. When the 19th Cavalry Regiment trades in it's horses for tanks, no one is more upset than First Sgt. Hap Doan (Beery), who loves his mount more than he does his gal Susie (Main). Promising to retire and take the horse with him, Hap goes AWOL after a runaway tank fatally injures his steed. Dishonorably discharged, a disgruntled Hap soon finds himself mixed up with spies in a sinister plot to blow up his units new tanks.
