Slang used in Robert Heinlein's classic Novel [Starship Troopers] (First published in 1959) to describe enemy aliens that were human like but thin and about 8 feet tall. The novel is read and held in high regard by many soldiers. The term "skinny" is most popular for its usage in Mark Bowden's best selling book and later movie, [Black Hawk Down]. The Rangers referred to the Somalis as "skinnys" because they had read [Starship Troopers].
