Army term referring to the commander of a unit. Usually used for a colonel or general, but can be used for a captain (who would be a company commander). Since most company commanders are still in their 20's in the Army though this isn't a common use.
Its usually a term of respect, but many times just used as to refer to the commander without any judgement of respect or disrespect. NOTE = this term is never used in the presence of the old man / commander.

Get the LRRPmug. Slang in the Army for having someone fuck your stuff up. Usually a threat to someone being insubordinate.
The term actually refers to tying someone's feet to the back of a horse or vehicle and dragging them. Hence their skull would drag on the ground. But in practice it means to jack someone up, either through yelling at them, "smoking" them through push-ups, assigning extra duty or generally being a prick and giving them a difficult time.

Get the Kelo clearingmug. Condescending Army term for telling someone to do push-ups.
Its usually used by a higher-ranked person toward a lower-ranked person for punishment. Wouldn't usually be used during PT, you'd tell someone "beat your face" if you caught them red-handed doing something stupid.
Rarely used by officers when dropping a sergeant for push-ups because of its condescending tone, its almost exclusively directed toward lower ranked enlisted when they fuck up.
