Boom Boom is a theatrical cartoon of the Looney Tunes series. It features Beans the Cat and Porky Pig. The film is in the public domain.[1]

Plot

Beans and Porky are soldiers and have been sent into the battlefield. Porky was on a surge with some fellow infantry. When bombs rained near them, the pig quickly retreated as he runs into a bunker and under a bed where Beans is sleeping on. Beans gets up and tries to encourage Porky not to be afraid.

While Beans and Porky are having a meal, a dove came to them with a note. The note was a message from their general who is held hostage by enemy forces. They then set off in their motorcycle to salvage their leader.

Beans and Porky made it into enemy territory. Looking from outside undetected, they found their general in an enemy bunker, interrogated as well as being tortured. Beans makes his move by tieing up the rival officers from a distance with a rope. He and Porky then rush forward and picked up the general. The general and the two soldiers attempt to escape using a nearby airplane. But before they could fly far enough, their aircraft was strucked by enemy fire, causing them to plunge back to the earth.

Fortunately, all three of them survived the crash and are in a bed at a hospital. Though injured, the general was honored by the soldiers' bravery as he awards badges to Beans and Porky.
