I thought this was pretty interesting. Of course now ALL are listed,

Good post, thanks.
It's a start. They left out a lot of stuff, like "****ing-A
dittybag."

Had not heard that one for a long time. I remember it be shortened to
simply, "****in' A Ditty".
Now, I wonder how many non vets know what a dittybag is (without the help
of Google)
Me, I do!
