A military pilot makes a valiant effort to be certified insane during World War II so that he can be excused from flying missions. But there's a catch.
A bombardier in World War II tries desperately to escape the insanity of the war. However, sometimes insanity is the only sane way to cope with a crazy situation. Catch-22 is a parody of a "military mentality", and of a bureaucratic society in general.
