A little surprised not to see 'Tapping the Boards' amongst the list. During the time I served (Army) it meant to land on OC's or CO's orders for misbehavior.
Blue jobs…
edit… used to mean sailors, i.e. any personnel, regardless of rank, in the Royal Navy. 2001:8003:3020:1C00:4C86:B3AE:632E:1B07 07:36, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
"Screamer"
editI've heard this a few times. I don't know what it means, though. Rokejulianlockhart (talk) 13:33, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
