During WWII prostitutes who followed the troops around, sometimes wore army boots or combat boots. It's akin to calling some one's mother a prostitute.

"to die with your boots on" means that someone died in the middle of a fight or generally in the middle of a work-process.
It originates from the late 19th century, it was used to describe that a soldier died during battle.
"Die With Your Boots On" is also an Iron Maiden song about the same topic.
