The Square Peg

Norman and Mr. Grimsdale are council workmen mending the road outside an army base where they come into conflict with the military. Shortly afterwards, they get drafted and fall into the clutches of the sergeant they have just bested. They are sent to France to repair roads in front of the Allied advance but get captured. Norman takes advantage of an uncanny similarity to impersonate General Schreiber and manages to return home a hero.
