Interesting info on Woo-Ahh!
Ya know whoo-ahh don't you? That exclamation that you always hear military folks using these days to indicate everything from "ok, I heard you" to "I'm motivated let's go!"

The original spelling, if I recall from my early Army days, was actually HUA. It stood for "Head Up Ass". Ranked right up there with FUBAR and SNAFU in the military lexicon. It amuses me to see it's usage these days.
