It was too perfect of a response. Also an important PSA!

That's... mildly hilarious. That whole tumblr is perhaps the sole justification I've seen for tumblr existing outside of one or two comics.

But when they create extended terminology, it gets worse...

"vertical envelopment" = parachute drop
"target rich environment" = we're surrounded and/or heavily outnumbered
"inadvertent collateral damage" = we B-52'd the entire village.

Vertical envelopment involves helicopters, not parachutes.

*nitpick*
it can be either.  Nowadays,  it is usually by helicopter... but:
"A tactical maneuver in which troops, either air-dropped (parachute) or air-landed (helicopter), attack the rear and flanks of a force, in effect cutting off or encircling the force."

The term "Airborne Assault" is the correct one for parachuting attacks.

Vertical envelopment is DIRECTLY linked to heliborne assault per the original document on heliborne assault Marine Corps manual Phib-31. That definition from the free dictionary is also shaky at best Grog.

Was listening to a discussion between co-workers (all multiple deployment vets)
Vet A: we lit up that haji with the '249...
Vet B: too easy: we took out the house with a Dragon...
Vet C: we were taking a shitton of fire, so we called in CAS and B-52'd the entire village.
-stunned silence-
ME: that is the first time I've ever heard of B-52 used as a VERB.

I lived in MN for the first 18 years of my life, and I never once saw a tornado.  Yeah, I know we get them, but I never saw one.  Hell, I lived in CA for only three years and I got to experience an earthquake (even if it was only a 4.0).
