This is no flag-waving, war-themed short like many others made at this time. This is about a pushy agent (Daffy Duck) performing a series of overbaked musical numbers in an attempt to interest a producer (Porky Pig) in his client (Sleepy LaGoof). Why "Yankee Doodle"?
The title is meant to evoke the multi-talented showman, George M. Cohan, who had recently been played by James Cagney in El canto de la victoria (1942) (1942).

The Sweater girl was a term name for a fashion look popularized in Hollywood in the 1940s and 1950s by actresses such as Lana Turner and Jane Russell exemplified by the wearing of a tight sweater in order to emphasize the bustline. In its original form the image was often tied to the promotion of the new bra technology.
The look caught on for a while, and returned again in the 1960s, when it was sometimes wrongly also associated with the "no bra" trend among feminists, who followed the fashion statements of Yves St. Laurent.
No longer a fad, the look has become a minor icon of popular fashion and culture of America.
