Back From the Front is the 70th short subject starring American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges. The trio made a total of 190 shorts for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1959. The Stooges join the war effort by enlisting as Merchant Marines. While aboard, they have a brief run-in with Lt. Dungen , and then mistake a torpedo for a beached whale. Moe says they have to kill it, and it promptly explodes. After being lost at sea for several days, they come across the SS Schicklgruber and climb aboard. Now with fully grown beards, they come across Lt. Dungen again, who does not recognize... them. After realizing they are in with a nest of German sailors, they eventually overtake the crew and toss them overboard.
