A crass, cigar-smoking miniature G.I. fairy called the “Technical Fairy (First Class)” appears and grants Private Snafu’s wish.

The cockpit falls from the mountain, where Private Snafu finds himself back in the Infantry. “I see you’re back sir, here is your pack sir.” says the Technical Fairy as he hands over a pack to Private Snafu. “All the roads are pretty rough, parlay-voo,” sings the Technical Fairy, to the tune of “Hinky Dinky Parlez Vou (Mademoiselle from Armentières)”. “and all the services are tough, parlay-voo” sings back Private Snafu as he and the Technical Fairy march together. The Technical Fairy and Private Snafu sing “any "soldier or gob" should "finish the job"- Hinky Dinky Parlez Vou” as they march away.
