Dunno if they're Americanisms but some annoying recent shit.

 

Saying 'one hundred percent' when you agree with someone.

 

Saying about a prospective romantic  partner "they're my person."

 

Saying "I've got your back".

 

One hundred percent.

The fuck has six got to do with back? 

 

From google

 

I've got your back
 
In the military, “Got your six” means “I've got your back.” The saying originated with World War I fighter pilots referencing a pilot's rear as the six o'clock position. It is now a ubiquitous term in the military that highlights the loyalty and cooperation found in military culture.

Pearl Harbour is chocker full of the annoying bastards. Especially the dialogue between affleck and hartnett when the Japanese attack. "Danny get me into a plane get me into a god damn plane" fuck you 

Not quite as clear as what Rommel would always say to his men before they got in their tanks.

 

"Right, men. Get in your tanks."
