Don't forget other well-used acronyms that originated in the military:

YGBSM - You Gotta Be Sh*ttin' Me! (The unofficial motto of the 'Wild Weasel' surface-to-air-missile killers. Considered to be a suicide mission when it was first introduced during the Vietnam War, when they asked for volunteers after getting an explanation of what needed to be done, one guy in the back of the room stood and said the immortal words above.)

FUBAR - F*cked Up Beyond All Recognition

SNAFU - Situation Normal All F*cked Up

IHTFP - I Hate This F*cking Place (Originally by MIT, but adopted as the unofficial motto of the Air Force Academy.)
