Why Douahboys2
From, the Washington Times.

From the Washington Times.
The term 'doughboy" as a nickname
for the American infantryman is a very
old one. dating back to the Mexican
war of 1916.
In that year the United States regu-
lar soldiers first made acquaintance
with the houses OF mud colored, SUM-
dried bricks that are seen everywhere,
even today. in New Mexico, Arizona
and the southern part OF California.
These bricks are called by the Next
cans adObes pronounced 'dobies"). a
term also applied to Inc small. squat,
flat rooted houses built with then.
When the American invaders entered
what was then Mexican territory the
infantrymen found these dwellings
mostly deserted by their panic stricken
inhabitants-handy as billets, and
promptly occupied them as such. But
the c~aivarymen, who had to be near
their picketed horses out on the open
prairie. were unable to avail them
selves of similar accommodation.
Partly In envy and partly In good
natured chaff. these christened their
more fortunate comrades 'dobie dodg-
ers." afterWard shortened to dobies," a
good. round sounding nickname that
was bound 10: stick. and which In course
Of time became corrupted into Dough-
boys"
