Plots(1)

The soldiers of a cavalry regiment spend their free time as they please, not leaving out various practical jokes and above all singing songs. Also participating in all of this is Corporal Václav Toman. The soldiers stop on the way to training manoeuvers in one village and the mayor invites them to a dance. Toman meets here his long ago friend Boženka, who has taken a fancy to the mayor's son Jan. She would like, however, that her chosen one enter military service where they would make a real man out of him. Václav supports her efforts, and so Jan follows after the soldiers. Barracks life is difficult for him at first, but he soon gets used to it. He meets his schoolmate Olga at a party and she points out to him the peculiar behaviour of one man. (NFA)
