Referring to US Marine Corps Infantry personnel. GRUNTS are anyone with the MOS beginning with 03 as in 0311 (Riflemen). The term originating during World War II to abbreviate the term "Ground Reinforcements Untrained," referring to tons of troops being sent to combat with little training. The term has taken on a more affectionate meaning for our killers in the Marine Corps Infantry today. The term GRUNT also refers to those doing their time commitments and getting out during the Vietnam War; as opposed to Lifers who were career Marines. The term POG is the opposite meaning "Personnel Other than Grunt"
