TIL that “G.I.” originally referred to objects made from galvanized iron from WWI on, before it was reinterpretated as "government issue ", and by WWII, applied to American soldiers.

I always thought it was General Infantry but I don’t see that term referenced anywhere in the article. Gee, I…guess I was wrong.
Sir, this is the internet. You’re not allowed to admit you were wrong. You’re supposed to get arguementitive and beligerant.
It’s spelt “belligerint”
I think the author of the article is so terribly wrong. They clearly didn’t serve in WWI or the sequel.
