The story

A reporter is interviewing businessman Eddie Clark on the backstory behind his conglomerate of companies branded the alluring "Bamboo Blonde". During World War II, young Captain Patrick Ransom, Jr., an experienced private recreational pilot, has just been commissioned and given command of a B-29, bomber. Seeking to meet up with his veteran aircrew for the first time before shipping out together the next morning to the Pacific, he is first ditched by the unimpressed and wily bunch, which misdirects him to a declasse New York nightclub, then snubbed by his elitist fiancée, socialite Eileen Sawyer, who refuses to accompany him there.
