@TacosIncorperated

It was a form of punishment back then.

[greveastrom]

...Force, Home Movies, and so on. They stick to Walt's tradition of social commentary and relevant humor.

Donald's middle name, Fauntleroy, comes from the name for the type of hat he usually wears.

And brass knuckles in cartoons didn't screw people up, political correctness and sensitivity did.

There's more to old cartoons I grew up on, than the flashy shit that rapes the masses through forsaken airwaves on Sunday mornings.

[Filipeeno]

To get a correct reading on the tone of this short, look at it from a 1940's perspective.

It's not propaganda, it's satire, a social commentary. It's something 80% of trashy, un-artisan, banal, retarded cartoons now lack. If you don't yet pity our youth, you should be paying more attention to what they watch. Shame on all major production companies. The exceptions in the cartoon world, of course, are many of the adult-oriented ones, now, like Family Guy, Beavis and Butthead, Aqua Teen Hunger..

[C64KonsolenChris]

But in the end Donald told us that the army is "poorly", right? So, it isn't propaganda at all.

[MissRuffian1]

"What color is this red card?" i almost died laughing! xD

[ScatmanKirby]

Jesus Christ, is that what 50's propaganda was like?

[magicanchovies]

Damn, His middle name is " Fauntleroy" Now there is some serious trivia buster.

[Guesswh012]

how can it been legal for them to do a children program and use the thing they have in 6:27 in this show? And they wounder why people today use those and knock people down? BECUSE THEY WAS LOOKING AT IT AND SAW IT WHEN THEY WAS SMALL PERHAPS?

[Laurelindo]

@Guesswh012 Donald Duck is not a kid's show, that's why there are so many violent parts. =P

Just look at the episode "Clown of the Jungle", the annoying bird is pointing a gun at his temple and almost drinks fuel for God's sake.

That's what you call a children program?

[MrTriplexi]

@Laurelindo Well, back then, the world was not full of pussies and people who find things like that offensive. I put emphesis on the "Pussies".

[AnimePrayer]

@Guesswh012 Oh c'mon. It begin earlier when you read fairy tales at your kids bed. The imagination of some violents in there...... Or didn't you play cowboy or thief and policeman. Tell the trouth, how many times you shot the indian and the thief?

[iLikeCookiezToo]

rofled at 5:50 ;D

[candicecovarribus]

I remember this cartoon! - I use to have it on VHS.

[maxpowers518]

Wouldn't Donald be in the Navy if he's dressed in a sailor's uniform? lol

[WantedReward93]

3:10 what colour is this RED card? xD xa0xa0xa0

[captainsealed]

Donald's middle name is Fauntleroy.

You learn something every day.

[tusenkunstneren2]

Cartoons was very serious propaganda in WW2 in US, it was important for the good moral and hope for everybody, and I think they worked in a good way :-)

[foolycooly09]

Mmmmmm propaganda

[flippaton]

this is fucking story!

[SushiBrawl]

Was that Pete?

[Riri8711]

this is serious propaganda

[EHH246]

Propaganda? The song that plays at the beginning contradicts what Donald goes through in this and later wartime cartoons!

[irule1255]

@Riri8711 watch "forward march hare" bugs bunny cartoon along the same lines... classic

[asusefu]

whats the name of the song?

[MDthornton83]

Great cartoon.

[Quesadiia]

of course Pete would be the drill sgt...

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

Donald (Frustrated)-"Phooey on that stuff! I quit!"

Sgt. Pete (Ready to rumble)-"WHAT WAS THAT?!!"

Donald (Probably wetting himself)-"I didn't say anything."

[LuciusTheFair]

Yea I love how he's out of his uniform in a heartbeat and ready to brawl with brass knuckles. Thats some drill sergeant right there.

[Aaron1046]

Great ep!
