Hartmann"; about a pair of bumbling stunt pilots who join the Army Air Corps) starring Bud Abbott, Lou Costello (Abbott and Costello), Martha Raye, Carol Bruce, William Gargan, Dick Foran, Charles Lang, and The Six Hits (a singing group that changed its number of members, and occasionally had a female member, at which point they would become "...and a Miss"). Note that this was Abbott and Costello's sixth movie together in a short time, and this time, The Andrews Sisters were not in the cast, but Martha Raye was. The timing for the movie was good, because it was made just weeks before Pearl Harbor, and of course, cinemas would soon be flooded with war movies! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
