Major Eugene Bilko, grandson of Sgt Ernest Bilko (the
conniving central character of the old "Phil
Silvers Show"), retires from the Army, and of course goes to
get his piece of the action in Washington DC, plying the
family trade as any self-respecting con man with military
connections would
do.
From the hallowed halls of the Defense Appropriations
Committee to the cocktail parties of Crystal City, Bilko
always makes sure he gets more bucks for his bang!

I don't believe Phil Silvers is available for the role. |

They did a movie back in '96 with Steve Martin as
Bilko... I'm open to casting suggestions... |
