A highly effective method of deploying Army and Marine Corps combat elements into remote battlefields in a short amount of time, utilizing rotary winged aircraft(helicopters) rather than fixed wing aircraft(airplanes). This gives them the advantage of landing on or completely bypassing terrain features for drop off or pick up of said combat elements making them faster and considerably more mobile than Airborne elements which are forced to rely on the Army Air Corps...I mean Air Force, for insertion.
The Armys 101st Division is the worlds only Air Mobile division affording it the most flexible operating parameters.

Noun: When your walking back to the office after just realizing that you just failed the Air Assault School obstacle course and now your going home for being a wimp when you should have made it.
Every year many soldiers do the Air Assault walk of shame back to the office at Air Assault School to out process because they were not prepared for the intense training they had to endure like a 2 mile run and doing 9 obstacles that every soldier at basic training performs every year without problem.
