That character is named "Luke the Spook", *and was an informal warning about leaving info where spies could see it, *from WWII. Kilroy was never seen. He was like the average "faceless" *G.I. who was everywhere, but never stood out from the crowd. The two *pieces of graffiti were often on the same walls and such, but are unrelated. Correct. "Kilroy" was the name of a missle inspector of the same war, who, on each missle 'cleared,' would scrawl "Kilroy Was Here."
