Chocolate Soldier

Chocolate soldier is an expression referring to a good-looking but useless warrior, popularised by George Bernard Shaw's 1894 play Arms and the Man. The term originates as a derogatory label for a soldier who will not fight but looks good in a uniform, shortened from 'Chocolate Cream soldier'.
