Both Hanson W. Baldwin and Stewart Alsop used variations of the expression in 1953. See Baldwin's "'New Look' of the US Armed Forces is Emerging at the Pentagon," New York Times,13 Dec 1953, E5; and Alsop's "Defense Asks 'More Bang For A Buck,'" The Washington Post, 21 Dec 1953, 10.Neither article attributes the expression to a particular source, but use it as if everyone had been familiar with it for a while. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.91.64.172 (talk) 08:03, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the correction and for taking the time to locate and provide the citations. I've amended the article's text to say "notably used" instead of "invented". Cunard (talk) 08:20, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
