That was normaly if your were in Germany you were a "Dog Faced Soldier"



that  moniker is old, goes back to WW2.  if you were in the 3rd inf,  you had to know the division song  "dog face soldiers" by heart, regardless of your MOS. the 3rd was in Germany, now they are at Ft. Stewart  

{ I  Wouldn't Give A Bean
To Be A Fancy Pants Marine
I'd Rather Be A
Dog Face Soldier Like I Am

I Wouldn't Trade My Old OD's
For All The Navy's Dungarees
For I'm The Walking Pride
Of Uncle Sam

On Army Posters That I Read
It Says "Be All That You Can"
So They're Tearing Me Down
To Build Me Over Again

I'm Just A Dog Face Soldier
With A Rifle On My Shoulder
And I Eat Raw Meat
For Breakfast E'V'RY Day

So Feed Me Ammunition
Keep Me In Third Division
Your Dog Face Soldier's A-Okay

Anyone who isn't a Snipe = Topsider.

Topsider is a derisive term.  As used with me - "You know your DC (damage control) and firefighting pretty good.....for a topsider."

That comment is equal to "you're pretty good looking for a fat chick."
