Ace in the Hole

'Ace in the Hole' (originally titled America's Ace in the Hole) is a 1942 animated short film, and is the fifth Woody Woodpecker short ever produced. Woody Woodpecker, an anthropomorphic woodpecker, is at a military air base and gets into conflict with its sergeant as he dreams of becoming an air pilot. In the pilots' quarters, he tries to put on a flying suit, and a flare sends him into the air, and causes it to inflate until exploding.
