Hey guys,
Wasn't exactly sure which part of the forum to post this in. If this is the wrong spot - my apologies. I was watching Jarhead the other day, and as with many military movies I heard the term "In the suck" or "welcome to the suck". What exactly do they mean by this? Welcome to the theater of operation? Welcome to combat action? Or is "the suck" actually referring to a certain place?
Just wondering if anyone knows the origins of this. Kinda a stupid question but it's been bugging me!
Thanks in advance,
