I was a ground-pounder, but have to admit to LOL at a lot of these terms.  One example:

Dog: A Soft Serve Ice Cream machine. Named from the appearance of the Chocolate flavor in relation to a product of man's best friend. Also referred to as auto dog.

Cheers

The term for cooked food where I served in the navy and is still used is Scran.  Shit Cooked by The Royal Australian Navy.  The term 'dog' referred to hatchway handles.  "Always secure the 'dogs'

Kind regards,
