Disgruntled Canadian-American Alan Ladd makes trouble in the barracks at parachute school in England. He gets in fights, argues with his superiors and even manages to upset poor parachute packer Susan Stephen. His troubled past is eventually brought up which explains everything. Meanwhile, the training goes on, leading to a couple of real raids against the Germans: one in France and another in north Africa. The studio-bound sets do their best to hide the fact that nothing takes place outside of Shepperton Studios, but the back projection for many scenes makes it all too obvious.
