However, the plot thickens when they are sent into Germany with the Army of Occupation, and their subsequent adventures make the war look like the Saturday Evening Strawberry Festival, back in Pawtucket. Claire Windsor as Elsa Von Berge,n, a titled German girl, is the heroine of the story, and with Nag·el supplies the love interest.
