WWII vets with M1 Garands & Achronyms painted on...

[HILLBILLY-06]

I don't see these guys at the range anymore, but they were a group that rode together to come shoot at the range. They were all WWII vets, they all had M1 Garands with military Achronyms painted on thier stocks. I should have taken pictures, they were all great guys to talk to and fun to sit back and watch. They had things like "BOHICA" and other words painted on thier stock. One guy even had the Killroy was here dude on his rifle.
SO... before times are faded away, and we cant get the info anymore, Lets try passing on a page here with all of the old military achronyms, even new ones will do, but I hate to see them just be forgotten. They were important enough to the old vets, so lets make them important enough to make a post here.
All I could remember was "Bohica" & "Oshica"... "Killroy was here"... there were a lot more than that.... anybody else remember aything??
Lets keep it going for the vets... I plan on painting one on my M1 Garand just for them.

actually very hillaious, but I won't repeat that one, I just couldn't stop lauphing when I saw it. One of my Grandads was a korean War Vet, and he use to say that sometimes while driving around to and from work. "I never knew what the heck it was" I was only about 12 years old.
Now I just can't stop lauphing at it. I wish he would have told me back then, but under the circumstances at that time, I may not have found it funny. "AS it was always the other guys fault" no matter what. Sorry Grandad, I had to bring that up. I rember saying it in school all the time after that, Man I'm sure glad nobody there knew what it meant either. Yike's !!

Oh, there are so many. It is fun to walk down memory lane. So many of them have rather coarse sexual meanings, you wonder if they are used anymore?
