Mdusa

What is Mdusa?

1.

MDUSA

Many Died You Shall Also

This ACRONYM for 'Medical Department United States Army' was monogramed on the front top pockets of Army-issued bathrobes during World War II. The hospital humor of the wounded G.I.s soon changed it to mean:

Many Died You Shall Also.

When a new wounded G.I was wheeled into a hospital ward during World War II, he would almost surely be met with a cry of 'Welcome to MDUSA!' Followed by a loud chorus of 'Many Died You Shall Also!' And no matter how seriously wounded the soldier might be, he knew he was with others who understood what he'd been through.

See gallows humor, irony
