Plot

In North Africa, it is morning for the French Foreign Legion. A corporal wakes the legionnaires, only to be jumped while they dress up. Bosko is still asleep to the chagrin of his uniform, who wakes him by having him blow into a trumpet. Bosko exploits a legionnaire's gear to wash his face.

Bosko reports for duty and unknowingly signs up to a plan to capture the notorious criminal Ali Oop. He rides a camel through long distances to a city. He finds Honey and kiss together, only to find Ali Oop and his subordinates terrorizing the city. As they both run to hide, Ali Oop throws a plethora of knives in their direction, which they exploit to enter a building. As the criminals shoot him with a variety of nonsensically constructed shotgun, Bosko finds a revolver and shoots pots and coconuts to subdue them. Bosko then throws spears which conveniently lock Ali Oop in place after he lands on a wheelbarrow, which he victoriously wheels away with Honey and the camel in tow.
