Common for any soldier to use this to protect the men and women to their right and left during war

A valediction which has come to mean "be cool," but which more properly understood is an admonishment to stay alert and on one's toes. See the quote below for the pop culture origin.
"Hey! I know we're all in strung out shape but stay frosty and alert. We can't afford to let one of those bastards in here."
--Corporal Hicks (Michael Biehn), in Aliens (1986)

Earliest origin I have seen is the 1972 movie "The New Centurions" and is spoken by George C. Scott to the "newbie" Stacy Keach. The meaning is "Stay cool and in control"
