Orange Whip?

There's a first time for everything, but I think this is the first time that some part of my life has made it into, of all places, Wikipedia.

"The term orange whip is also used by the military in Afghanistan as a slang term to ask if someone would like to go to the mess hall to eat or is at the mess hall eating. Used in a sentence: "The CJ5 FUPLANS section is out orange-whipping."

The part it left out was my adding "TWO MINUTE STRIKEWARN" to let people know we were heading out in two minutes, but that's completely separate from the "orange whip" warning order.

Awesome.
