If you're Army or Marines, you know what it is, but if not; I was in the Infantry ( 11B10, light weapons infantry ). Thing was, when it
gets tough, you have to just grunt & keep going. So we were called "grunts". Since I was in "Nam" in 1967, we have grunt67.
I used it on all my forums & other places I visit. There you have it.
I've been called worse.
Nothing wrong with being a grunt, dad was one also.
Gen. Paton once said he had a lot of respect for the soldier with the Combat Infantry badge, more so than the CMA.
My Dad's his has the Star in the top center, dang collar.
