    For a searing look at the "it don't mean nothin'" in American military use, please see "Hamburger Hill." The scene takes place after the medic has tried to save someone, failed, and is about to crack under this final blow to his shattered nerves. Seeing his plight, his black squad mates step in, chanting the phrase and versions of it with ever growing power and conviction (sucking the reluctant medic into their ritual) while simultaneously performing an elaborate dap. After a time, even the white squad members join in. The intervention is ultimately successful.

    Is "REMF" a fair equivalent to the German kettenhunde?

    Regards,

    Kettenhunde is "Chained Dog" and refers to a Military Policeman, so called because of the gorget worn while on duty, suspended from a thick chain. Also an unflattering reference to a canine, naturally.

    The German equivalent of REMF was posted above by Dandelion - in English it translates as "Rear Echelon Stallion." </font>
