While performing at an army base in world-war two, Lewis convinces a courting serviceman to marry immediately and not wait until the war is over...and, in flashback, he tell the story of a pianist, Jerry Stewart (Larry Parks), who had his hand injured in the trenches but returned home to marry his sweetheart and became a trumpet player.
