Did you see all of those ferrous guys after they got off work? Why don't they just go back to Canada where they belong?!

A tongue-in-cheek name for rust removal duty (ferrous oxide being the precursor to rust on steel objects), especially on Navy ships, playing on the vivid contrast between the tedious and highly unpleasant nature of the duty, involving the use of wire brushes and toxic chemicals often under a blazing sun, compared to the delightful, carefree leisure tableau depicted by the three teen protagonists of the 1986 Matthew Broderick film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."
Chief Petty Officer: It's your lucky day, sailor -- two weeks of Ferrous Oxide's Day Off starting at eight bells.
Sailor: Aye-aye, Chief.
Chief Petty Officer: And don't ask my daughter out again.

Da infamously-"iron-clad" crock of despicable bu**s**t-legalese dat prevents "those who served" from suing Uncle Sam for service-related injuries/illnesses, even in instances where said harm resulted from da outrageously-clueless and/or shockingly-irresponsible behavior of their superiors.
On guard, soldier --- thanks to da Ferrous Doctrine, it'll be anybody's guess whether you get proper compensation if you get hurt due to any royal screw-ups by your commanding officer or staff doctor.

The type of guy to go out munging with his friends. He is a big soy boy and farts a lot. However, he will treat his girl amazing even if he tackles her into doors and has cold hands all the time. Also his name means Iron which is kinda cool.
