History: what does GI stand for in GI Joe?
Self-tutoring about pop culture and history: the tutor researches another question he’s often wondered about.
GI: galvanized iron, apparently. With time, it took on a broader meaning, eventually referring even to recruits.
BTW: not all sources seem to agree about the meaning of GI.
