Businessman Eddie Clark tells a reporter the story behind his conglomerate of products branded as the "Bamboo Blonde". During the Pacific War, the pilot of a B-29 bomber is stood up by his fiancée Eileen Sawyer (Jane Greer) on the way to meet his new crew at a New York nightclub.
Instead, he sees a beautiful blonde singer at the nightclub. Although engaged, he falls in love with the singer, but has to leave next day for action in the Pacific, joining an experienced bomber crew as their new pilot. The crew is reluctant to accept their new "skipper" and decide to dump him at the out-of-bounds nightclub, coming back later to find the captain and the torch singer kissing.
In the Pacific, to try to break their bad luck streak, Captain Ransom lets the crew paint the image of "Bamboo Blonde" on the nose of his bomber, as the crew members think that the striking blonde singer they had seen, is his girl.

The "Bamboo Blonde" becomes famous when the B-29 bombs a major industrial target and shoots down numerous Japanese fighter aircraft. The armed forces decides to bring the "Bamboo Blonde" and its crew back home to sell war bonds across the country.
