So I'm reading the John Ringo Posleen books. Great reads although sometimes he
goes a bit over the edge. I keep encountering the term
"didee-mao" and I can't figure out what it means.  I've done a net
search and nothing. Can anyone remove my ignorance?

On Topic, most of the battles in these books are too big, however, the bridge
with a dozen Posleen faced by three infantry and a militia sharpshooter could
be interesting.

"didee-mao" Vietnamese for get out of here, or hurry out of here "

It a term left over from Vietnam, or at least the individual who told me that
where it was from. Means "Move", hope this helps.
