Answer 1

G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero is a line of military-themed toys produced by the toy company Hasbro.

The name G.I. Joe was created by David Breger when he was asked to create a comic strip for United States military magazines during World War II. Breger came up with the title "G.I. Joe" from the term "G.I." His strip debuted June 17, 1942 in the military's YANK magazine and Stars and Stripes newspaper. In 1945, United Artists released a movie titled The Story of G.I. Joe [1], directed by William Wellman and starring Burgess Meredith as acclaimed war correspondent Ernie Pyle .

In 1964, the character G.I. Joe became a series of military-themed 12" articulated action figures produced by the Hasbro toy company. The Hasbro prototypes were originally named "Rocky" (marine/soldier) "Skip" (sailor) and "Ace" (pilot), before the more universal name G.I. Joe was adopted. The initial product offering featured members of the four branches of the armed forces as follows; Action Soldier, Action Sailor, Action Pilot and Action Marine. The name, G.I. Joe, no longer referred to one specific character but to a toyline brand.
