Decent Jack Lemmon Vehicle
Lieutenant Rip Crandall is hoodwinked into taking command of the “Wackiest Ship in the Navy” — a real garbage scow with a crew of misfits who do not know a jib from a jigger.Columbia Pictures acquired the rights to a story in the July 1956 issue of Argosy titled Big Fella Wash Wash, inspired by reminisces from former Echo skipper Meredith “Rip” Riddle. The story was advertised on the cover of the magazine as “The Wackiest Ship in the Army”, because the naval vessel had been under Army command while in port, and Columbia used that title when purchasing the story in 1957. The movie never explained any connection between the ship and the Army, puzzling some viewers.
Oddly enough, it never occurred to me that “Army” was strange, since I think of “army” as a general term for the military as well as the specific branch. But yeah, I can see how that might be confusing… now I feel foolish I had not noticed sooner.
