I wonder if this is how grunts got that name. ;)

The sound of making a gritty, grinding effort?
I was one and made lots.
Also heard G (eneral) R (eplacement) UNT (rained).

That gun would roll a whole lot easier on the railroad track.

This origin story takes us back to the second World War when infantry united sustained extremely high casualty rates, forcing troops from rear-echelon units (often referred to as rear-echelon motherf*ckers or REMF) forward they were quickly trained, often in-theatre, to be foot soldiers. These troops were categorized as "General Replacement Unit, Not Trained," or GRUNT.

That looks to be very close to actual misery.

My own memory, such as it is, has REMF as a product of Vietnam where the ratio between thems that fought and those the supported was something around 1:4 or 5.
Also, I think the use of "grunt" was pretty much referring to Marines. Funny I don't connect REMFs as much with them as I do the other services.
Another thing that came about well after I left the Army was "ell tee" for lieutenant. I hate to think what my platoon sergeant would have done to any one who used that form of address..

Back in the late '50s early '60s there was an epidemic spreading across Kansas.
Formerly upstanding, church going, sons being dragged into the addiction of A&W.
