Showing (among other things) that some people can get stockings, the hosiery hitchers are members of the Canadian Navy. Photographed at Elstree Studios, England, the girls are Canadian Wrens who, with Canadian naval ratings, are performers in the all-amateur film, "Meet the Navy." Dressed as nurses, the girls prove it's still "Show a Leg" in the Navy as they de-wrinkle their stockings before a sequence is filmed. The cast provides its own props and accommodation.
