FIGMO
Finally I Got My Orders
It's basically like saying "WHEW!" because you have finally gotten the piece of paper that makes it official. You know where you're going, but you can't do anything about it until you get your orders. Getting those orders, finally, is a big deal! Standard deal---when you FINALLY get those orders---is to tape a copy on your door/bunk/etc after writing, with a magic marker, in giant letters "FIGMO" across the top.

When I was in the ROK (Osan AB, Korea), when someone got orders to return to "the world," IOW the United States, he wrote FIGMO in black marker on a copy and taped it to his door in the barracks. It was a proclamation that he was getting out of the ROK.

FIGMOS- Stands for "Finally I got my own sto' (store)"
In the 80s, Buffalo, NY a black owner opened a
supermarket in a closed supermarket in the middle of the ghetto. He called it "FIGMOS PTL" (Finally I Got My Owwwn Sto'. Praise the Lord!). Supposedly, gospel music, and never anything else, played over the store's speakers.
It is remembered for its hilarious commercial jingles, that always ended "Figmos, Praise da Lord!".
