I thought newbies were called pingers? Have things changed that much from back in the day.

Well back in the bad old days of quonset huts and wood 2 story hooches in basic training, we called real total newbies (Airman basics etc.) as "pingers" because you could almost hear the hair re-emerging on their shaved heads. FNG was a term for someone who was already somewhat seasoned but transfered into the unit.

Times change. :~)

Yes, we did that too. It usually was for the guys that had just gotten their 3 level. It meant they could get around by themselves but were easily upended by trying to go too fast.
