词汇 eisenhower jacket
词源
Eisenhower jacket; I like Ike. One of the most popular presi- dents in American history, Dwight David Eisenhower (1890– 1969) was elected to a second term of office in 1956 by a landslide. Graduated from West Point in 1915, the Texas-born soldier later became General Douglas MacArthur’s aide in the Philippines. “General Ike,” or “Ike,” as he was known to G.I.s, was appointed commander of the Allied armies in World War II, and was noted for his success as both a strategist and a diplomat who fashioned his command into a smoothly functioning machine. At this time the Eisenhower jacket, a waistlength woolen jacket once worn as part of the service uniform, was named in his honor. He is also remembered by his presidential campaign slogan I like Ike.
