Three war buddies make a pact to meet 10 years later in a New York City bar. When the day arrives they find they have each changed so much that they don't really like each other. A live radio show on which they are the surprise guests changes their mind. Entertaining singing and dancing undone by contrived plot and sexist attitudes. Dan Dailey gets not one but two inebriated dancing scenes!
