Production
Buck Privates was filmed from December 13, 1940 through January 11, 1941.
The famous 'drill routine', where Smitty tries to get Herbie and other soldiers to march in formation, was actually a series of shorter takes that were strung together to expand the bit to more than 3 minutes of screen time.
