This is a fun story, Tara. I never really thought about who or how Uncle Sam developed. Most if not all Americans are familiar with the name. Enjoyed reading this account.
Uncle Sam has always in our lifetime been the symbol of America, its fighting force and anything that points to our government. Thanks for the reminder, Tara, that this was born out of the War of 1812, as was our National Anthem.
I've always known Sam Wilson to be the inspiration for our national symbol, Uncle Sam. Another great product of the War of 1812 AKA American Revolution Part 2.

I'm happy you enjoyed it!
While in the Army the term was used by many, Uncle Sam ain't released me yet.
Lol 😊

Whether or not he is based on Sam Wilson, Uncle Sam is a fun American icon!
Another interesting story with fact and fiction mix together? Who really knows but we all know Uncle Sam!!! Thanks Tara!
Thank you, Tara, for another GREAT story of United States history!
Uncle Sam

That’s a fascinating story! Likely containing a lot of truth. And I’m glad it happened! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

First that I have heard of how the US became known as Uncle Sam. But, I like this explanation Tara, thank you.
I was once the property of Uncle Sam.
Love this story!! 🇺🇸🤩
Interesting. It is certainly good to see the Congress of every age spending time on such weighty issues. Thank you, Tara Ross, for the insight!

Thank You, Tara
Cute story about a true legend about the beloved Uncle Sam. Perhaps Thursdays should be about Legends similar to Medal of Honor Mondays.
