I heard the soldiers using Hooah before Iraq, they used it a lot in the movie Blackhawk Down, which means they were using it during and before Somalia.

We were not using it up to the time I retired in 1985.

VN was a bit different.

I worked with a guy that did a couple of tours in Nam. He said when they went out through the villages the locals would beg for cigarettes. If he threw out some Winstons or 'Boros they'd yell GI number 1, GI number 1! When he'd throw out the cartons of Pall Mall's (no filter of course so nobody wanted to smoke them) they'd yell GI number 10!!, GI number 10!!

Don't forget this one, "Bravo company got hit in an NDP last night. Spooky was on call, lotsa gooks got waxed on our claymores and FPF's".
