Wiki.

It's a Grand Life, also known as As You Were, is a 1953 British film described in its opening titles as a comedy burlesque. It was directed by John E. Blakeley and stars Frank Randle and Diana Dors.

The film contains a series of sketches set in army life in the Essex Regiment in the post-World War II era, mostly involving Randle as an accident-prone private. Randle, who made his final film appearance in It's a Grand Life, had previously starred in a series of World War II army comedies: Somewhere in England (1940), Somewhere in Camp (1942), Somewhere on Leave (1942), Somewhere in Civvies (1943) and Somewhere in Politics (1948).

One of the subplots involves a glamorous Women's Royal Army Corps corporal who is pursued by her company sergeant major. Other set pieces include a wrestling match with Jack Pye and a drill sequence.
