Hit the Deck With this One-All Hands on Deck *1/2

Warning: Spoilers
Asinine comedy with a naval ship and a Chicasaw Indian played by Buddy Hackett. Hackett as always causes havoc on board, but he gets away with it because his wealthy family pays a lot in income taxes. This already is ridiculous.

Pat Boone, as a naval officer does his usual crooning, and Barbara Eden plays a reporter who comes on board to do a story about Hackett and of course immediately falls for Boone. The two immediately contemplate marriage, but the navy has a way of upsetting everything.

The sudden inspection by Admiral Gale Gordon, who still thought he must have been on The Lucy Show or Our Miss Brooks is silly, especially when Eden comes on board.

The whole thing is utter nonsense, but with a little time out for Boone's singing, some may enjoy.
