yomp

Yomp is Royal Marines slang describing a long-distance march carrying full kit.
The origin of the word is unclear (one suggestion would interpret it as an acronym of ''Your Own Marching Pace''). It was popularized by journalistic coverage in 1982 during the Falklands War.
"Yomp" has been compared to the term ''yump'' used in rally-driving in the sense of "to leave the ground when taking a crest at speed", apparently a variant of ''jump''.
The most famous yomp of recent times was during the 1982 Falklands War. After disembarking from ships at San Carlos on East Falkland, on 21 May 1982, Royal Marines and members of the Parachute Regiment yomped (and tabbed) with their equipment across the islands, covering 〔 "There were two considerations. First, the distance between Stanley and San Carlos was some 56 miles and given the problems posed by the terrain it would take at least eight days to cover the ground. Movement would be 'under constant enemy fire from the air, in an area without cover, wood, drinking water or means of subsistence'. When his men arrived, worn out by the long trek, they would have to go into immediate action against an enemy well prepared and supported by field artillery."〕 in three days carrying loads.
==Synonyms==
British Army slang for the same concept is "TAB", of equally unknown origin. (One suggestion would interpret it as an acronym of Tactical Advance to Battle〔(【引用サイトリンク】website= Acronym Finder )〕)
US Military slang for this concept is to "ruck" (from the "rucksack" being carried) or to "hump" from the phrase "humping a pack".
