Talk:Military parlance

Needs work

I have tagged this clean up as it needs a lot of work. However it could be a really interesting article - can we have some ex-miliatry input? How does this change in different countries? A curate's egg 12:26, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I've made a start - but just don't know enough to provide a lot of details A curate's egg 12:53, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Link to external site 'List of British army slang' is misleading. The target page actually lists Royal Marines slang, which is distinctly nautical and very different to Army slang. Suggest link to http://www.arrse.co.uk/wiki/Army_Slang instead.

Military Songs
