Ok, he’s not a paratrooper, but in “Forward March Hare” (1953), Bugs does mistakingly get drafted into the army. I did a post earlier about the Chuck Jones human character designs for this one, so check out that previous post. I love seeing Bugs in his ill fitting uniform (a gag later repeated by the Pink Panther in “G.I. Pink“), for as it swallows him, he has to peek out from under his helmet.
Bugs has some shots that are mind boggling, as in an early scene where he goes up a flight of stairs. A simple motion in theory, but it’s actually not easy to draw. Everyone is an expert on how it should look, like it’s cousin the walk/run cycle; making life a nightmare for an animator.
