From Wikipedia
Colonel Blimp is a cartoon character created by New Zealand cartoonist David Low. The character was first drawn for Lord Beaverbrook's Evening Standard in April 1934. Blimp is a pompous, irascible and jingoistic British colonel who is identifiable by his walrus moustache and common use of the interjection "Gad, Sir!" Low claimed that he developed the character, which was named after a term for non-rigid airships, after overhearing two military officers in a Victorian Turkish bath declare that cavalry officers should be entitled to wear their spurs inside tanks.
