Gung Ho

Original translation was "to strive for harmony" used during WWII originally by the Marine Raiders. Now is used more to mean excited about something.

That marine is Gung Ho about his new assignment

Gung-ho Approach

When an individual is unable to focus on one thing and wants to do/prioritise many things.
By doing so they fail to achieve anything
