Silkies

Marines
Definition

The absurdly short green PT shorts that Marines wear with disturbing pride. Called "ranger panties" by other branches, but Marines own them. The shorter you roll them, the more senior you think you are.

Example Usage

"First Sergeant said no more silkies at the PX. Half the battalion is in mourning."
