PONTI; ponti noun in military terms, a person of no tactical importance UK An acronym.- Early on we heard that we [journalists] were referred to as PONTIs–an official army acronym, no less. This was it, recognition! A long time later we learned that it represented what the army really thought of us: Persons Of No Tactical Importance. — Kate Adie (writing of the Gulf War), The Kindness of Strangers, p. 331, 2002
