''The Rookie Bear'' is a 1941 cartoon from MGM directed by [[Creator/HarmanAndIsing Rudolf Ising]].
It is an installment in the WesternAnimation/BarneyBear series. In this one Barney, who was basically WesternAnimation/YogiBear 20 years early, is hibernating in the trunk of a tree when he gets a telegram informing him of a "free vacation"--from the United States Army. He's been drafted. Barney, who shows up at boot camp with golf clubs and a tennis racket and the like, is rudely surprised to find out that he is ''not'' getting a a free vacation. He then goes through a particularly uncomfortable bootcamp ordeal.

!!Tropes:
* AllJustADream: The ending finds Barney waking up in his bead, his boot camp experience having been a dream. Then he gets a telegram from the Army for real, complete with a note at the end stating that "This ain't no dream!"
* BlandNameProduct: The story about the army draft runs in a magazine called "STRIFE" which is an obvious stand-in for LIFE Magazine.
* BootCampEpisode: Barney Bear joins the army. Much comedy ensues, like when the army dentist calls in the WPA to fix the cavities in Barney's teeth.
* CurseCutShort: Barney's draft notice comes in the form of a singing telegram. The deliveryman sings "You're in the Army Now", but when it's time for the line after "you'll never get rich", he blows his trumpet instead of singing "you son of a bitch".
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Barney gets a telegram from the Army, misreading it for a free vacation. After realizing that he's been drafted, he pantomimes "Screw this" and begins to leave the base, only to be forced back to be inducted.
* VisualPun: After getting poked and prodded and examined by army doctors and dentists, the narration says "He gets that final OK...in the end." This is accompanied by a shot of someone stamping "OK" on Barney's butt.
