Book on Vietnam War Slang

[Hugo]

Searching Google Books, the same or shorter definition of Howdy Doody
appears in:

 * The Concise New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English
(2007) by Terry Victor, Tom Dalzell

 * The Routledge Dictionary of Modern American Slang and Unconventional
English (2008) edited by Tom Dalzell

But I found no other references.
