During the build-up to D-Day in 1944, the British found their island hosting many thousands of American soldiers who were "oversexed, overpaid, and over here". Thats Lieutenant Commander Charles Edward Madison (James Garner) exactly; he knows all of the angles to make life as smooth and risk-free as possible for himself. But things become complicated when he falls for English woman Emily Barham (Dame Julie Andrews), and his commanding officers nervous breakdown leads to Charles being sent on a senseless and dangerous mission.
In the days leading up to the D-Day invasion, Lieutenant Commander Charles Edward Madison (James Garner) has to admit that hes having a pretty good war. Hes the personal aide to Admiral William Jessup (Melvyn Douglas) and Charles is, if anything, making sure the Admiral gets whatever he wants. Liquor, good food, and girls are Charles specialty, and for Emily Barham (Dame Julie Andrews), a driver whos been assigned to him, hes everything that she dislikes about Americans. Too loud, too rich, and too wasteful. For his part, Charles, a self-proclaimed coward, just wants to stay out of action. When Admiral Jessup suffers a nervous breakdown however, Charles finds himself on a zany assignment to film the arrival in Normandy of combat engineers. Meanwhile, Charlie and Emily have very much fallen in love.
