A soldier wants his buddy to meet his sister but he has already fallen for a girl he's met. As he travels from place to place he sees this girl and her family repeatedly, but each time, she gives him a different family name. When the war ends, he returns to the houses he ate with these people, but they are empty and the neighbors claim no one with that name ever lived there. Confused, he goes back to the states and meets his buddy's family, who look just like the people he encountered.
