Mainwaring prepares a poster for a recruitment drive, eager to increase his platoon to a company and so gain promotion to Major.

Wilson inherits a title and consequently receives an invitation to become a member of the golf club that Mainwaring has been trying to join for years. To raise money for the Comforts for the Troops Fund, the vicar organises a bazaar to which each member of the platoon donates something.
