Army Girl

Captain Dike Conger, an officer with the Thirty-first Cavalry Regiment is instructed to determine whether the unit should use tanks instead of horses. Along with his mechanic, Master Sergeant “Three Star” Hennessy, Conger is opposed by those who want to continue using horses.

Meanwhile, Conger agrees to go on a blind date arranged by his friend, Captain Bob Marvin, on the condition that his date be a civilian, not an "army girl", i.e., the daughter of an officer or soldier. Due to a misunderstanding, his date turns out to be Julie Armstrong, daughter of camp commander Colonel Armstrong who is among those not wanting to convert the unit from horses to tanks. Despite his misgivings about "army girls", Conger falls in love with Julie.

Subsequently, a contest shows that tanks are more effective thank horses. As the regiment awaits a final decision from Washington, Conger and Julie decide to marry, but as Conger is about to tell Colonel Armstrong, the colonel himself reveals the decision and then tell Congers he will replace him as post commander. Julie, angered by the decision, breaks the engagement.

Upset at the decision to replace horses, Sergeant Ross, a rival of Three Star, sabotages the tank which is to carry Conger and Three Star at the transition ceremony. On the day of the ceremony, the colonel decides to drive to the ceremony with Three Star instead of Conger and both are killed in the wreck caused by Ross’s actions. Captain Joe Schuyler, a rival for Julie's affections, reaches the tank, and hears Three Star's dying words implicating Ross, but he decides not to tell anyone. Instead, Conger is court martialed for negligence and held responsible for the accident. Schuyler then proposes to Julie. When she refuses him, he realizes that she will never love him. He then forces Ross to confess before military judges, exonerating Conger who reconciles with Julie.
