Definition
Military protective covering or fortification, especially temporary shelters or bunkers built to provide cover from fire.
Etymology
From French 'blindage' derived from 'blinder' (to blindfold/protect), used in military contexts since Napoleonic era for protective structures.
Kelly Says
Military vocabulary travels across languages faster than any other field—'blindage' proves how warfare creates technical terms borrowed wholesale, crossing borders in trenches.
