This late RKO short is about the Defense Early Warning Line, it's purpose, its building, and its operation.... should it ever be needed.
With ten minutes to cover its subject, it bookends the building of one DEW outpost, stressing the difficulty of getting supplies to the Canadian tundra, confronted by cold water and lack of roads, utterly inaccessible to humanity.... and here come the neighbors, Inuits, to pay a social call.
This short bounces along, never emphasizing the humor in those two statements, but concentrates on the food provided by onsite cooks, with an emphasis on doughnuts and the constant training.
