Hon oedd y comedi milwrol cyntaf yn seiliedig ar ddrafft amser heddwch 1940. Gwnaeth y tîm comedi ddwy ffilm filwrol arall cyn i'r [[Unol Daleithiau America|Unol Daleithiau]] fynd i'r rhyfel (''[[In the Navy]]'' and ''[[Keep 'Em Flying]]''). Rhyddhawyd dilyniant i’r ffilm, ''[[Buck Privates Come Home]]'', ym 1947.

==Stori==

Mae Slicker Smith a Herbie Brown (Abbott a Costello) yn bedleri palmant sy'n gwerthu teis allan o gês dillad. Mae heddwas (Nat Pendleton) yn eu herlid ac mae'r ddau yn cuddio mewn theatr ffilm, heb sylweddoli ei bod y theatr bellach yn cael ei defnyddio fel canolfan ymrestru'r Fyddin. Gan gredu eu bod yn cofrestru ar gyfer gwobrau theatr, maen nhw'n ymrestru yn lle hynny.

==Cynhyrchiad==

Ffilmiwyd Buck Privates o Ragfyr 13, 1940, trwy Ionawr 11, 1941. Yn wreiddiol, cyllidwyd ar gyfer $ 233,000 dros 20 diwrnod; yn y diwedd roedd yn $ 12,000 dros y gyllideb a phedwar diwrnod dros amser.<ref name="abbott"/>

Roedd y "drill routine" enwog, lle mae Smitty yn ceisio cael Herbie a milwyr eraill i orymdeithio, mewn gwirionedd yn gyfres o sgets fyrrach a gafodd eu tynnu at ei gilydd i ehangu'r darn i fwy na thri munud o amser ar y sgrin. Roedd Abbott a Costello wedi bod yn perfformio’r sgets hwn ar y llwyfan am fwy na thair blynedd.<ref name="Palumbo, Ron 2013">Palumbo, Ron. "Buck Privates: The Complete Filmscript."

Roedd Lubin yn cofio bod y ffilm yn un od i saethu..."''was very strange to shoot because they didn't go by much of a shooting script. Being burlesque comedians they just did their old routines. They would say 'This routine is "Spit in the Bush".'... And they would have to act it for me and show it what it was. The entire first script was a series of titled gags. I would just say 'We'll take a close up here and a two shot here'. I never interfered. There were was nothing I could do because these were tried and true old burlesque things that they and their forefathers and their forefathers, probably since the Greek period, had done''."<ref name="kings">{{cite book|title=Kings of the Bs : working within the Hollywood system : an anthology of film history and criticism|year=1975 |publisher=E.

Yn ôl Lubin "''the studio was a little uncertain about how they were going to be accepted. But at the first preview the audience just died. Buck Privates was a very, very funny show. And, actually, I must say it was very little credit to the director. It consisted mainly of fabulous gags that these two wonderful guys knew from years and years of being in burlesque''."<ref name="kings" /> Yn dilyn llwyddiant y ffilm, gofynnodd y stiwdio i Lubin ffilmio, ''Oh, Charlie!'' a ddaeth yn ''[[Hold That Ghost]]'' yn hwyrach ymlaen yn y broses.

Ysgrifennodd ''Variety'' , "''Geared at a zippy pace, and providing lusty and enthusiastic comedy of the broadest slapstick, Buck Privates is a hilarious laugh concoction that will click solidly in the general runs for profitable biz''." <ref>{{cite magazine |last= |first= |date=February 5, 1941 |title=Buck Privates |url=https://archive.org/details/sim_variety_1941-02-05_141_9/page/12|magazine=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]] |location=New York |publisher=Variety, Inc. |page=12 |accessdate= }}</ref>
