Two vacuum cleaners salesmen accidentally sign up for service in American cavalry unit just before the new weapon in introduced - the tanks.

Two salesmen, Jeeper and Breezy, try to sell a vacuum cleaner to commanding officer in military base, but when their presentation of the product goes wrong they accidentally sign wrong papers in the office and enlist to join the cavalry unit. From the very start Jeeper gets in trouble with every officer he meets while Breezy tries to keep the low profile. But soon the new orders arrive that the unit is gonna be switched from horses to tanks. Commanding officer, Colonel Dobson, is old-fashioned cavalry man and he doesn’t trust the tanks and is determined to keep his old-fashioned ways of running the unit. Jeeper and Breezy try to use their talents as salesmen to convince colonel, but their talent to get in trouble gets in the way.

Simple comedy filmed just before World War 2 presents the introduction of tanks to the cavalry units - they old officers were often skeptical about the idea, but the progress of the warfare made the horses obsolete. Film is average at best, parts of it are just poor.
