What Is Latin For OORAH

"Oorah", yells the master Sargent, "forward into the past"!

My fictional dialogue is to introduce a fictional setting which is to be a movie soon; a group of Marines travels back to ancient Rome to do battle with the Roman Legion, who wins.

An intriguing question.

The Roman legions and Marines are both highly trained with a clear unit structure and hierarchy of command. They emphasize aggression, dominating the opponent, unit cohesion, and being flexible on the ground. "It’s easy to arrange people like chess pieces and march them in a direction," Erwin says. "But when you’ve got basically huge gangs of people going toward each other at knifepoint, it’s very hard to maintain a plan. So they have to improvise."
