Mr. Thompson. Please refrain from calling it Psyops. It is just Psyop. The S at the end is added on by the ignorant and the hollyweird liberals.
The primary objective of Psyop personel....TBF Total Brain F*** And don't forget the Frago...Originally fragmentary order later used to describe the list of incompetent LT's that were to be fragged immediately upon combat deployment. Then there is FNG F-ing new guy. As bad as an incompetent LT. |

I'm suprised by the number of my friends who don't know what a "klick" is. I mean, did these guys never play Wing Commander when they were younger?
And although I'm not a PSYOP guy, I would have assumed PSYOPs to be plural for PSYOP just like OPORDs is plural for OPORD. |

Sorry, but.... It is a Psyop BN or a Psyop group. The only time you use the plural is when you use the full phrase, not the acronym. I.E. Psychological operations are conducted by Psyop units. That was the very first thing I learned. CSM about chewed my ass off when he heard me say it on my first day in the unit. And this CSM was hard core enough to curl a crew cut with a look. They even have a hair cut at Ft Bragg named after the guy. A Bunty cut. All you had to do was go into the barber shop on smoke bomb hill and say I want a bunty cut and you came out so close to bald that you were almost out of reg.( from 0 to no more than 3", tapered, off the ear and off the collar) A bunty cut, the taper started about 3" above the ear.....

Quoted: Mr. Thompson. Please refrain from calling it Psyops. It is just Psyop. The S at the end is added on by the ignorant and the hollyweird liberals. View Quote In fact, at US Strategic Command, (who is now responsible for both nuclear and psyop planning), they've had a problem because "SIOP" and "Psyop" sound the same when spoken. They differentiate by saying "syop with a P" anytime they're talking about the latter. |

The only time its ok to use the S at the end of PSYOP is if you are intentionaly mispronouncing PSYOP IE:
PiSops: The standard operating procudure for the use of 3.14 Cyclops: the one eyed wonder worm used to do the mind altering procreation procedure. |

I always liked the term Goat Fuck, which, I suppose, is a really bad Cluster Fuck. I've introduced the concept at work so that "GF" is a common term now.

Anyone remember expressions like "Broken Heart", "Mickey Mouse", or "paper asshole"?

A couple buddies of mine came up with a pretty good acronym.
STEAL Strategic Transport of Equipment to Alternate Location Which explains why so much stealing takes place in the military. |

and yet a few others:
MARINE- My Ass Rides In Navy Equipment Muscles Are Required Intelligence Not Expected |

MFWK (pronounced miffwick) = Mother Fvucker With Knowledge. Refers to somebody with knowledge and/or experience concerning a topic.
YGTBSM! = You Got To Be $hitting Me! "Dash One" refers to the operator's manual (or user's guide) for a particular piece of equipment. Every military tech manual is asigned an alpha-numerical identifyer. The ones which end with a suffix of "-1" are the most basic and simplified version designed for the typical user. |

Quoted: Quoted: Anyone remember expressions like "Broken Heart", "Mickey Mouse", or "paper asshole"? View Quote My dad uses "paper asshole". He's USN 65-69/ Never knew what it meant exactly. View Quote The 'paper assholes' I am familar with are the little round doughnut shaped re-enforcements used to go around the hole puches in paper. Pilots use this term for the little paper things since they are constantly pulling out pages of old regs, traffic patterns, radio frequencies, etc and putting in new ones. The paper tends to wear at the hole punch and thus, paper assholes are use to hold them together. |

Heard this one a lot at REFORGER. We'd get a bunch of reservist and NoGo types to evaluate. We'd rag on them about, well, just about everything and they'd come back with FUBIJAR.

My favorite as a kid growing up in the US Navy was CINCPAC. Every new rule had CINCPAC on it. I remember the military script trade-in rules for greenback when these came out. It had CINCPAC on the notice.
