Why are American soldiers called American soldiers?

The term American soldier originated in China during World War II, when China was in the process of outward transformation from the late Qing Dynasty. After the Japanese invasion of China, China people called the Japanese Japanese devils, who were short. Such a title is hateful and contemptuous.

During World War II, the United States and China were allies, and the average height of American soldiers was between 1.8- 1.9 meters. This height, together with the military boots and helmets distributed by various arms, should generally be between 185- 195cm in appearance. At that time, people in China called them American soldiers.

Soldier id card

As early as the American Civil War, the U.S. military began to issue soldiers' ID cards in the army. At that time, the identity card was very simple, just a small card with the number of the unit to which the carrier belongs and my name written on it.

In the battle, if there are casualties, others can know which unit the casualties belong to according to the records on the ID card. Although this kind of ID card is rough in texture and single in function, it is a precedent for soldiers to wear ID cards in the world military history.
