Synopsis

The story behind a rule of life in the service that can be stated as follows: "If you're insane you should be released from combat, but if you asked to be released from combat you are obviously sane." Set in Italy during World War II, the program relates incidents in the lives of an American Air Force base and its peculiar staff: Captain Yossarian, who is desperately sane and seeks a way out of the service; Colonel Cathcart, an insane commander who constantly sends Yossarian out on dangerous missions; Milo Minderbinder, a crafty profiteer; and Lieutenant McWatt, another insane officer who loves good crash landings.
