rock and roll
A term used to describe the new emergence of
rhythm and blues fusion type music in the 1950's. Often the music is referred to simply as rock in modern times. "Rock and rolling" originally was a term frequently used in predominantly black neighborhoods to mean "having sexual intercourse". The term was however first derived as a musical term by disk jockey Alan Freed. Alan Freed first played a collection of rhythm and blues albums in his show under the name "The
Moondog Show". However, upon relocating to New York he changed the name to "The Rock and Roll Show". He had full knowledge of the term and it's
racy implications, but probably found great satisfaction in the spread of the term among mainstream America with little knowledge of
the term's true meaning.

Another
coinage from Vietnam to denote full automatic fire (usually of the AR-15/
M-16. The early M-16/
AR-15's did not have burst triggers - hence the whole magazine of 20-30 rounds could be run off fast). Hardly ever were two weapons fired in cadence so a long rrrriiiipppp of automatic fire followed by others had a surreal sound like bars from rock and roll songs.
Example:
Infantry conversation after a
firefight: Hear that? Did you hear that?? I swear to Christ with us cappin` charlie and charlie
cappin' us I fuckin' swear to God I heard someone playin' "Louie Louie" in there. Also to describe the state of mind and fighting mode intended by the grunts: "Fuck that 'pick `yer shot shit...I'm goin' in on rock and roll...gonna
pray and spray the motherfuckers"
