The First (in a long series) Of Expressions I Invented That Did Not Catch-On

In the Marine Corps, the term "Gung Ho" is (or was when I was enlisted) a term used non-ironically for highly enthusiastic. I was Gung Ho and all good Marines I knew were too.

Some Marines took it a little too far and I would refer to them as "Gung-Holier-Than-Thou".

Some signs of being gung-holier-than-thou: Wearing a newby jacket after leaving a training command, wearing a high and tight haircut when you are not in a unit that customarily wears them, spit-shining civilian footwear etc.
