I know some nicknames for the World War 1 army men but need help finding the others?

Americans: Doughboys

You are on target for Doughboys and Tommys, and ya ought to throw Yanks in there as well for Americans (Southern US Army men 'hated' Europeans for calling them Yank s as in Yankees)---

Prussian was a word used for Germans but not for German fighting Men !! !! The German common soldier was a Fritz or a Jerry - - -

For Australian-New Zealand soldiers the term was ANZACs...

Here are a few you can use as well ... ...

http://www.worldwar1.com/heritage/wordswar.htm

""Devil Dogs
Nickname given to the US Marines by Germans who faced them at Belleau Wood.
The Germans in this sector had previously come to admire the huge Mastiffs guarding a chateau in the nearby village of Belleau.

Diggers Self-name for Australian troops in World War I.
Traceable back to 19th Century Australian gold fields. Resurrected by members of 1915 Gallipoli expedition who had to dig into cliffs to survive.

Fritz
Sympathetic nickname for German soldiers by Allies.
From ‘Old Fritz’ a name for Frederick the Great of Prussia (1712- 1786).

Frog
Derogatory term for a Frenchman with 18th Century origins.
From frog eater.

Huns
Derogatory term for German Soldiers.
Kaiser Wilhelm originally associated Germany with the ancient nomadic tribe that plundered much of Europe.

Jerry
Sympathetic nickname for German soldiers by Allies.
Derived from a: German[y] according to one theory, or b: the fact that the British thought the German helmets looked like chamber pots, also known as jeroboams, abbreviated to

Poilu
Front line French soldier, literally, hairy-one.
The noun poil is used primarily for the hair of animals. Dauzat points out that the term implies more than just an unshaven man, hair is also a traditional symbol of virility.

Tommy, Tommy Atkins British frontline soldier.
Goes back to Wellington’s time when the British soldiers’ specimen pay book was made out for Thomas Atkins; usage popularized by Kipling.""

Very little to be found regarding Austria-Hugary or Italy but as for Turkish soldiers, the English were in the habit of calling them Abdul ..

http://europeanhistory.about.com/od/worldwar1/a/ww1glossa.htm

""Abdul: Colloquial term for Turkish soldiers, used by Allied troops in World War One. ""

In all my reading I have never run across a colloquial term for foot soldiers for Austria other than the German one of 'Old Fritz.'
