The Private Navy of Sgt. O'Farrell is a 1968 film directed by Frank Tashlin and starring Bob Hope. It was filmed in Puerto Rico in 1967.
Sgt. O'Farrell is a G.I. on an island somewhere in the South Pacific during World War II, bemoaning the consequences of a ship torpedoed while ferrying to the island a desperately needed cargo of beer.
Among his problems are the Navy personnel making life difficult for himself and his Army buddies, an officer trying to emulate John Paul Jones, a hoped-for delivery of morale-boosting nurses turning out to be six males and the ugliest woman (Diller) ever to wilt a bouquet of flowers, and a Japanese soldier who's hiding from everyone else ... and hiding something else as well.
