WBritain 1918 WW1 US Infantryman "Doughboy" Marching
No one is sure how the nickname for American soldiers during World War I began .The origins of the term are unclear, but appear to date back to the Mexican-American War (1846-1848). Another theory claims that it began during the Civil War due to the dumpling shaped buttons worn by Union soldiers. Initially the term only referred to the infantry, however during World War I it was expanded to cover all American forces in France.
