Johnny Doughboy

Johnny Doughboy was one of a seeming army of goofballs populating the military during World War II, at least the army of the comics pages.

Johnny was of a kind similar to Sad Sack, Pvt. Joe Dope, Pvt. Snafu, Private Dogtag, and after the war, Beetle Bailey and Gomer Pyle, lovable goofs in uniform.

He ran in the back pages of Military Comics starting with issue # 14 and changed over to it for a few issues when it became Modern Comics. However as there was nothing that really made him stand out he did not last long after that.
