Film Synopsis
Having served with distinction as a Flying Tiger pilot in the war against Japan, Fred Atwell decides to spend his leave incognito when he arrives back in New York. Shunning the publicity parades, where his fellow pilots are feted as heroes, Fred pursues photographer Joan Manion, who mistakes him for a draft dodger. Fred's persistence annoys her at first but soon Joan warms to his charms, although she remains adamant that he should be doing something to support the war effort. If only she knew...© James Travers
