Old Term Dating Back lo the Mexican War. I I The term "doughboy" as a nick- I name for the American infantryman lis a very old one, dating back to the I Mexican War of 1846. I In that year the United States I regular soldiers first made acquaint- ! ance with the houses of mud-colored, I Bun-dried bricks that are seen every- where, even to-day. in New Mexico, Arizona and the southern part of California. These bricks are called by the. Mexican adobes (pronounced "do- bies") a term also applied to the Ismail, squat, flatroofed housees built with them. When the American invaders en- I tered what was then Mexican terri- tory, the infantrymen found thes-? [dwellings â€" mostly deserted by their 1 panic-stricken inhabitants â€" handy as I billets, and promptly occupied them ' f>n such. But the cavalrymen who had to he near their picketed horses out on the open prairie, were unable to avail themselves of similar ac- commodation. Partly in envy, and partly in good- naliircl ch.^ff, these christened their more fortunate comrades "dobie- 1 odgers," afterwards shortened to "dobies," a good, round-sounding nickname , that was bound to stick, and which in course of time became corrupted into "doughboys."
