(...) Grunt is slang for a group of people. They do manual labour, are easy to train. They are usually soldiers. They are an unlimitless resource, and make up the base of any army. They are the mighty FOOTMAN!! <<KM>> (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Ooohh... Oops!! :) A "grunt" is the nameless, facesless front line soldier of an army. They basically have no purpose but to fight on the front lines. In certain instances, they are refered to as "Cannon Fodder". ;) These terms are often used (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)
