Courtesy of Miss Cellania, we are directed to a 1945 instalment in a series of animated instructional films produced by Warner Brothers and featuring PVT Snafu stationed this time in Iran as the logistics hub for delivering materiel to the Soviet Union during the waning days of war in Europe. Intrigued by reports of scorching temperatures, which first dismissed as propaganda, Satan, voiced by Mel Blanc, inspects the supply lines whilst our private bears the brunt of the burden in sizzling conditions. Bugs Bunny makes a cameo appearance in the gazetteer that the devil consults.
