Overview
Hard-luck cabbie John Winger, directionless after being fired from his job and dumped by his girlfriend, enlists in the U.S. Army with his close pal, Russell Ziskey. After his barely satisfactory performance in basic training, the irreverent Winger emerges as the figurehead for a ragtag band of misfits. However, his hijinks threaten to cause an international scandal when he inadvertently commandeers a military assault vehicle behind enemy lines.

Viewing Notes
Watched the extended version for the first time and was surprised that there was a P.J. Soles nude scene that had been cut from the theatrical release. She’s always been one of my favorite characters in this movie; I need to (re)watch more of her stuff.
