I'll second that! Kriegsprache is an outstanding reference and is well worth the price. It is hands down the best dictionary of the sort available.

Beside "Kriegssprache" you can call it "Landersprache" or even better "Landserjargon".

Here are some examples, unfortunately I'm not able to translate them, because I don't know the english terms...

http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Sol ... ecke-R.htm

It's interesting, that a lot of those words are still used in the german language, even by civilians, like "Knarre" (gun), "Donnerbalken" (toilet) or "gammeln" (slouching) just to name a few of them.

Best regards,
Steffen
