    It's also thought of as "F***** Up Beyond All Recognition"

    Anyway not a period expression, it's a 20th century thing, and so is SNAFU "Situation Normal, All F***** Up" .

    ...you end up with Outpost 2007, which featured one handed mounted cav carbine firing whilst on the move...a CSA cav charge against an inf company that resulted in some captured feds (and we didn't even get to eat the presumably shredded horses)...company's manuevering as seperate battalions...a waste of ammo powder burning night fight. - RJ
