In the context of WW2, G.I. is simply the abbreviation for "general issue" which applied to all of the clothing and equipment issued by the quartermaster corps to U.S. military personnel. It became and acronym whose meaning included not only the clothing and equipment, but the service men and women themselves. I've not heard the expression, "gi you" but would assume that it had something to do with the treatment of inductees, which leads to all kinds of ambiguous speculation.
