About Service Stripes
Joe Penner, in this Vitaphone short (Vitaphon production number 1124)features his stock speech impediment acts sprinkled with some left-over "doughboy" comedy from World War One. He also gets some flirting bits with dancer Joan Carter Waddell.
Directed by Joseph Henabery, Service Stripes leans on a strong ensemble — Joe Penner, Joan Carter Waddell — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 1930.
