Chatter Bug (T.F. 30-1314) is a U.S. War Department training film (T.F. 30-1314) that has been adapted from a British training film. The film uses several scenarios with British soldiers to show examples of how careless talk can end up providing useful information to the enemy. The film stresses the best way to prevent that from happening is to keep one’s mouth shut. The film opens with a British soldier in a living room talking with his mother. In a shop, the mother talks to the clerk, who then presumably passes the information on to another customer, and so on, demonstrating the ability of a conversation to unintentionally travel. A drunk British soldier is escorted out of a bar. He is then shown working on a motorcycle, chatting away about orders (02:27). Two women shop for produce on a city street while talking about news of their husbands’ deployments (03:28). The film shows two soldiers, one an officer or possibly a member of the Royal tank regiment, talking in a pub. A British officer dines with a woman at a high-end restaurant; he carelessly reveals military photographs that the waitress takes note of (04:25). British troops are shown milling around in a North African town (05:02). British troops enter Benghazi to cheering Libyans (05:38); the film then shows the people of Benghazi lining the streets to welcome the Nazis. At a North African café, British officers chat. In a makeshift infirmary in the basement of a building (06:57), an eastern European woman gives a cigarette to a wounded British soldier; the soldiers do not think she understands English, but the woman is then shown tying a message to a homing pigeon and sending the bird off. The film concludes by recapping the scenarios in which careless chatter has the potential to provide information to the enemy.
