Obviously, there is a major problem with many of these terms being "offensive", and there is great concern in reading this list as a former grunt myself. If you are in the Army, but aren't allowed to say you were a guinea pig ... there is a problem.
It isn't the ridiculous things that have been deemed offensive by the Army that I'd like to focus on here, but the lack of one particular derogatory slur.
There are a couple of words and phrases referring to homosexuals ... except for THAT one ... fagot.
Sorry John Edwards ... looks like you are still fair game according to the Army. They don't include the f word in their list of offensive terms.
