Of course now ALL are listed, but some insight on how some terms came about: http://www.seasabres.com/%5CNon%20Se...Navy_terms.htm Good post, thanks. It's a start. They left out a lot of stuff, like "****ing-A dittybag." --Vic 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! I know, too. So does every former boy scout. Maybe east coast scouts. |
