Bucket of Muzzle Blast

Among artillerymen, a nonexistent item used to trick rookies. It is commonly used to send rookies on a wild goose chase. (Muzzle blast is the burst of smoke and fire that erupts from the muzzle when a shell is fired.)

"Private, go to the supply sergeant and see if he can find you a bucket of muzzle blast."
