The symbol of Uncle Sam is commonly believed to be inspired by Samuel Wilson, a meat packer from Troy, New York. During the War of 1812, Wilson supplied barrels of beef to the U.S. Army, which were stamped with the letters "U.S." to denote United States. Soldiers jokingly referred to the food as being from "Uncle Sam," and the name stuck, eventually evolving into the iconic patriotic figure we recognize today. Uncle Sam has since become a symbol of American government and national identity.
