MORE LANGUAGE

New words I learned from TV. Mainly Foxnews.
Kashay--Used not only by media, but by soldiers on the ground in interviews. I think they mean Cache, as in arms cache.
Calvary--I thought that meant the hill Jesus was crucified on, so why do we have a third armored calvary in our army?
Attrit--like its synonym, "soften up". One general was honest enough to say that both of these mean "kill"
At least we don't have a Marine Corpse yet, I'm waiting..
