After Larry claims to have been part of "a litter of three," an angered Moe calls him "A Three Litter Man." "Three Letter Man" was slang for a person who is homosexual. #MeTVThreeStooges #NoCensusNoFeeling

"Are you married, or happy?" 🤣 #MeTVThreeStooges #NoCensusNoFeeling

"Will Hays?" is an "in-joke", referring to Will Hays, who headed a film industry board called the Production Code Administration--aka the "Hays Office"--which was the film industry's cenSORship board from 1934-68. #MeTVThreeStooges #NoCensusNoFeeling

I enjoyed that native idol bit! Never saw that one before.

This was the only Stooge short directed by producer Hugh McCollum. #MeTVThreeStooges #HulaLaLa

"We'll be killed! 🤣"

When the officer wakes up the sleeping stooges, Larry and Moe salute the officer. The pose that Curly makes is a reference to Benito Mussolini the Italian dictator at the time. #MeTVThreeStooges #BoobsInArms

Where did Moe get the water to spit out? At that point, Sarge only put the hose in Curly's bag... #MeTVThreeStooges #BoobsInArms

The army drill routine is adapted from a popular sketch originated by Joe Besser, who would later join the Stooges. #MeTVThreeStooges #BoobsInArms

Richard Fiske (Sarge) was drafted into the army and killed in France in 1944. 😥 #MeTVThreeStooges #BoobsInArms

At 8 minutes 26 seconds, Curly takes what looks like an apple out if his pocket. Nothing is seen of the apple in subsequent scenes. Possibly it was a joke that was omitted in the editing process. #MeTVThreeStooges #BoobsInArms

After the US Congress passed the Selective Training and Service Act on September 16, 1940, comedies about military life became popular. "Boobs in Arms" was the earliest of its kind. #MeTVThreeStooges  #BoobsInArms

This film was released December 27, 1940. European countries and Japan were already over a year into World War II. The United States entered the war less than a year later after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor Hawaii on December 7, 1941. #MeTVThreeStooges #BoobsInArms

The line "Hey, we're doin' the Corrigan!" is a reference to aviator Douglas Corrigan aka "Wrong Way Corrigan", who left NY for CA, and landed in Ireland. #MeTVThreeStooges #FlatFootStooges

Though they frequently appeared in the same film,this is a rare instance of Chester and Heinie Conklin sharing a scene. Although it's often assumed they were brothers, they are not related, but WERE born the same year (1886), in different states. #MeTVThreeStooges #FlatFootStooges

This short marked the debut of supporting actor Dick Curtis. #MeTVThreeStooges #FlatFootStooges
