Since at least the early 80's, Marines have bellowed ooh-rah.

It seems to have come from the UDT/Seal teams back in the 60's, according to the book. I have no idea as to when the Corps adopted it......I didn't really recall it being used much.....course, I was always sucking for air in those days.....(G)

"Since at least the early 80's, Marines have bellowed ooh-rah" I can state, unequivacably, that it was never heard in the Corps from 52-56.
