G.I. was actually used to describe items in US Military supply records and actually stands for Galvanized Iron. It was later attributed to US Army soldiers themselves. It was never used on the uniforms. I am quite sure it was meant to indicate all of clothing weaponry and general equipment the GOVERNMENT ISSUED [GI] to its soldiers.Over the course of time it came to refer to the soldier also
