Not coming from the military world (I got a proper job after leaving school) don't bite. Worked with plenty who did, they used to come out with some strange and funny sayings.
Let's get of sticks and give it a blow, can we get the aircraft of jacks and take it out for an engine run.
Let's get some toys and make some noise, get some tools and go for an engine run.
Took me some time to work out what they were on about.
