this is an english term, or asian?

whoops, learned something today:

"Fugazi is a word that was used by Americans in Vietnam, and is slang
concerning those who died in ambush (something like that), so the acronmym
is ****ed Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In."

and further "Fugazi is definately _not_ a vietnamese word as there is no Z in the
vietnamese alphabet."

skule is cool
If that's what it means, then Italian gangsters are using it incorretly. Who said it was a Vietnamese word? It doesn't look or sound remotely Vietnamese.
