Of Thee I Sting
Introduction '''''Of Thee I Sting''''' is a 1946 Warner Bros. cartoon directed by Friz Freleng, written by Michael Maltese and narrated by Robert C. Bruce that is a parody of World War II documentaries. Material was reused from the ''Target Snafu'' cartoon. The short was released on August 17, 1946.The title is a play on ''Of Thee I Sing''.
Plot In ''Target for Tonight''-style (a diagram of the target is actually stamped "Target for Tonight" by an officer mosquito), a narrator briefs the audience on a mosquito attack upon a hapless man enjoying a day on a screened porch. It goes from (under)ground school to field training against "enemy" countermeasures such as insecticides and swatters, takeoffs from improvised "aircraft carriers" made from a sardine can with a cigarette lighter as its superstructure and other military weapons.
