Plot synopsis (excerpted from John M.Miller):
Operation Mad Ball is among those service comedies that play it safe by having its high jinks occur in peacetime. In this case, boredom has set in amongst the GIs at the 1066th General Hospital base in France shortly after the close of World War II. The many nurses on base have been given officer ranking, which puts them out-of-reach for the enlisted men. Private Hogan (Jack Lemmon), a natural "fixer" and the most decorated soldier in the outfit, decides that what the men need is a big blow-out party to let off steam and dance uninhibited with the nursing staff. The greatest barrier in Hogan's way is Captain Paul Lock (Ernie Kovacs in his first big film role)- a by-the-book, cigar-chomping blowhard. Hogan works to put the elements in place– he finds a suitable venue in a local shell-worn tavern owned by Madame LaFour (Jeanne Manet), and enlists Master Sergeant Yancy Skibo (Mickey Rooney) to procure a band and suitable party favors. At the same time, Hogan attempts to romance pretty dietetic nurse Lt. Betty Bixby (Kathryn Grant); when the usual methods fail, Hogan steals a general's X-ray and pretends to suffer from an ulcer, which has the dietician nurse at his side with sympathetic remedies. Hogan is helped in his plans by others on the base including Lock's assistant, Corporal Bohun (Dick York)- but his plan may be further thwarted when the kindly base commander, Colonel Rousch (Arthur O'Connell), decides to throw a party for his newly-promoted brother Joe on the same night as Hogan's "Mad Ball."
