A term used during the American Western Expansion era to describe a situation where Native Americans were attacking a military camp/outpost. This term settled directly into modern military jargon.
<Round House> A situation where mounted Native Americans raid the camp and are circling the white settlers' tents. = DEFCON 3 / Quasi-war state.
<Whast Pace Fast Pace> The mounted Native Americans are speeding up, quickly circling the tents. = DEFCON 2 / Acceleration of war preparation.
<Cocked Pistol> A situation where you must be ready with your weapon loaded. Issued when full-scale or localized conflict is certain and imminent. = DEFCON 1 / Wartime state.
"Everyone is having flashbacks to the dreaded 'Hooh-hoo' announcements and the sheer misery of actual combat readiness drills (전준태 GOAT)."
