Synopsis: Rated as unfit for the military in World War II, Bill Morgan desperately wants to enlist -- in part to impress beautiful Lucilla Powell. When Bill finds an ancient lamp, he rubs it and a jinni emerges. While the magical entity grants Bill's wish of serving in the Army, it gets the era wrong, and the aspiring soldier ends up on a time-hopping adventure, skipping from the Revolutionary War to the discovery of America and other points in U.S. history.
