The name Jody makes me think of some skinny nerd, not some maucho guy taking everyone's girlfriend/wife.
Me too but I always thought that was the point. "I'm in basic and some loser nerd is banging my girl".

The U.S. military’s use of term dates back to roughly 1939 when it was introduced to the U.S. Army by African-American soldiers during World War II. Originally, “Jody” was “Joe the Grinder,” and blues singers used to croon about him — a disreputable man who cuckolds prisoners and soldiers by stealing their wives and girlfriends. While he’s Joe simply because it’s a common name, the “Grinder” comes from the 19th century slang for sex. Jody literally grinds up on, and then, in your girl.
By the end of the war, the name had been shortened to Joe D., then Jody, which stuck. And everyone knew who Jody was. The idea of him even worked its way into cadences.
Ain’t no use in going home
Jody’s got your girl and gone
[…] Gonna get a three-day pass
Just to kick old Jody’s arse.
— U.S. Army marching cadence, circa 1944

The movie battleground made in I think 1946 mentions Jody in it.

Jody could also be known as a REMF (Rear Echelon Mother fricker) who has many kids that look like him at the PX.

The first time I heard the name "Jody" during boot camp (army), I was like who the hell is Jody and why is he banging my girl
