Sgt. Bilko
All he ever wanted was an honest week's pay for an honest day's work.
Directed by Jonathan Lynn
Produced by Imagine Entertainment, Universal Pictures
A lighthearted military comedy built on schemes, camaraderie, and irreverent humor about a charismatic sergeant and his misfit unit.
The US army is known for churning out lean mean fighting machines intent on protecting our great nation. Sergeant Ernie Bilko is the leader of a ragtag group of the sorriest soldiers ever to enlist in the armed forces.
