Having trouble figuring out what an old veteran is saying? heres a list of some common phrases.
FUBAR-F**ked Up Beyond All Recognition. Used to describe Pvt. Numnuts after he set the claymore in the wrong direction.
Sarge-Short For Sargent. The man who will defy the 1st Lt. and actually get the brilliant idea to walk AROUND the mine field, not through it.
Lt.-Abrreviation for Lieutenant. Army troops tend to ignore them as they usually give the wrong commands at the wrong time, or screw up and forget extra ammo, med supplies or,most importantly,coffe. Ever seen the video of the Iraqi throwing rocks at a tank? Thats because his Lt. told him the RPG's he forgot to order hadn't come through UPS yet.
Ranger-One of The US Army's spec.forces-These are the best of the best in the Army. These are the men who hop on a C-130 at 23:00 hours, take a 2 hour ride in a rain storm, jump out of the plane, hike 75 miles to a target, radio for permission to engage a target, the walk back 75 miles to a helicopter because some one in washington realized the supposed WMD factory was a nursing home.
No Korea-The new shorter name of North Korea in 2010
Spooky-Nickname fo a AC-130 gunship. This is a plane that flys in a circle and fires a 105mm howitzer, twin 40mm cannons and 20mm minigun from its side. If your a terrorist, please note, if you hear a spooky, get out your umbrella!
Nuclear-pronounced NUKE-A-LAR as of 2002 according to the new George W Bush Guide to WMD's. Somehow i dont want to take advice from an expert on something he cant pronounce. After all, would you trust a doc who said you have Kancer in your Colone?
Nam- Short for vietnam. A hot tourist attraction in the 60's it dazzled young men with its fireworks and suspense.Also home to the greatest tunnel systme in asia(mole people?) While your there, try their white phosphorus grilled Forrest creatures, the monkey is great! Also be sure to have a tour of the jungle in a new UH-1 (forest may or may not be there depending on how happy the USAF got with the Napalm)
Brit-Nickname for the British. They survived WW-2 and kicked the crap out of Germany, but they still havent given us that tea we ordered back in 1776
PT-Physical trainging. Military excersise at its best. Stems from the Lating Acronym for "Death Wish"
I hope this list answers some of your questions you civilian pukes!
