A devil dog is a member of the United States Marine Corps. It originates from a statement attributed to the German High Command, in remarking on the determinedness of the Marines, to the effect of "Wie sind die Teufelhundern ?", which means "Who are these Devil Dogs?"
The Marines have taken the comment as a compliment to their fighting ability, and refer to their comrades as "devil dogs": "hey there, devil dog" is a friendly greeting between Marines.

Get the devil dog mug.A word commonly used by U.S. Marines to "talk down" on someone. Lately the word has lost it's original meaning, and now it is concidered a degrating insult to most of the younger generation of Marines. This is a result of those higher up in the chain of command, using the term to adress those who are about to get in trouble. This has also been seen in the navy with the term Shipmate.
"Hey, Devil Dog! Pick up that trash!" "I got Devil Dogged while i was walking to my car this morning." "Don't you Devil Dog me!"
