Output (English): In World War I songanddance man Jerry Jones George Murphy is drafted into the US Army, where he stages a revue called Yip Yip Yaphank. It is a rousing success, but one night during the show orders are received to leave immediately for France: instead of the finale, the troops march up the aisles through the audience, out the theaters main entrance and into a convoy of waiting trucks. Among the teary, lastminute goodbyes Jones kisses his newlywed bride Ethel Rosemary DeCamp farewell. In the trenches of France, several of the soldiers in the production are killed or wounded by shrapnel from a German artillery barrage. Jones is wounded in the leg and must walk with a cane, ending his career as a dancer. Nevertheless, he is resolved to find something useful to do, especially now that he is the father of a son. Sgt. McGee Alan Hale, Sr. and Pvt. Eddie Dibble Charles Butterworth, the troop bugler, also survive. Twentyfive years later World War II is raging in Europe. Jerrys son Johnny Ronald Reagan enlists in the Army shortly after Pearl Harbor. He tells his sweetheart Eileen Dibble Joan Leslie that they cannot marry until he returns, since he doesnt want to make her a widow. Johnny reluctantly accepts an order to stage another musical, following in his fathers footsteps. The show goes on tour throughout the United States and eventually plays Washington, D.C., in front of President Roosevelt Jack Young. During the show it is announced that this is the last performance: the soldiers in the production have been ordered back to their combat units. Eileen, who has joined the Red Cross auxiliary, appears backstage. During a break in the show she brings a minister and convinces Johnny that they should marry now  which they do, in the alley behind the theater, with their fathers acting as witnesses. The plot provides an envelope to showcase both revues.
