Here's a soundie in which orchestra leader Ray Noble asks singer Snooky Lanson to help him write a letter to his girl back home. He's in uniform and wants her to remain true. Later, he and Snooky go to mail the letter, but three WACS persuade him to put it on a record.
Snooky Lanson was christened Roy Landman. After his success with Noble, he replaced Frank Sinatra on radio's YOUR HIT PARADE, and starred on it through 1957, when he wasn't playing craps with the stagehands. He died in 1990 at the age of 76.
