Cherries meaning & definition 1 of Cherries.
-
[US Army] slang common during the Vietnam War, although possibly originating much earlier than this. It means a soldier who is a combat virgin who has not been blooded and, therefore, one whose behaviour in combat is unpredictable. The arrival of a new soldier as a replacement in an established unit was always difficult, hence the [referral] to such an arrival as [FNG] (Fucking New Guy). Where this soldier had not seen combat the difficulty was compounded and the established troops viewed them with suspicion as an unknown quantity.
