About Private Snafu: Going Home

Going Home (1944) is a Private Snafu cartoon, the World War II training series that the U.S. Army commissioned mostly from Warner Bros.' cartoon studio, with Mel Blanc as the hapless private and early scripts by Theodor Geisel (Dr. Seuss); it was directed by Chuck Jones. In it Snafu can't keep quiet about a "secret weapon" while on leave; it was planned for 1944 but never issued, and one theory is that the weapon looked too much like the atomic bomb then being built. It airs on Starlite TV's Laugh Track channel (CH 3).
