"battle rhythm" when referring to anything... except a battle!
A certain SAR Flt which I visited recently briefs the 'Admin Battle Rhythm' every morning. WTF??

'jets' when what is meant is an aeroplane powered by one or more gas turbines!
In the same vein, referring to a helicopter as an aeroplane.
