American soldiers in Europe during World War I were commonly referred to as "doughboys." This term became widely used to describe U.S. troops, particularly those serving in the trenches. The origin of the term is debated, but it is thought to relate to the soldiers' white buttons or the clay (or "dough") they used to maintain their uniforms. In World War II, they were often simply called "GIs," short for "Government Issue."
They called the same thing the enlisted men were called. Soldiers. They were not differentiated from the enlisted men. Of course some of the men were called grunts, GIs, Yanks, and a other not so nice names. ____ In Canada, men who waited until they were drafted were called zombies by the soldiers who had volunteered.
