Viet Nam word…Just gotta Know
a kilometer
Mott the Hoople
I believe it is still in use in all branches of the US Military.
I’d spell it klick. Here in Aus., “k” is common way to refer to a kilometre.
And just in case someone doesn’t know how long a kilometer is, it’s a thousand meters (the name should give that away), or 5/8 of a mile.
Same here.
I always thought it was one of those fuzzy measurements, like a heap, a moment, a butt load, a handfull, or a whole lotta. I know I have heard it used that way.
And I thought this was going to be about the Internet.
Vast amounts of information - only a click away!
