		Yaphank!, Irving Berlin's inspiring World War I show, but obviously, the focus of the film is Berlin's World War II show, This is the Army, which featured 300+ soldiers performing comedy bits, some magic, lots of song and dance, and a heaping helping of good old tomfoolery.
		Yaphank!, which plays very well to the emotions of attentive viewers, especially veterans of the Great War and the mothers who lost husbands back then and now face losing sons to another war.
		A lot of the show numbers are quite good, especially those featuring songs by the full company of performers, but I thought things started to drag a little bit toward the half-way point.
