I heard it used that way from growing up on Military posts. It just means any fucked up situation. I'm not sure it's known, but I was told it was made popular by troops in Vietnam. The most interesting theory I've seen is that it may derive from fougasse (“land mine”). All of that said, it makes one of the best band names ever.

My understanding is that it is an acronym.
Fucked Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In.
My understanding is that acronym stories like that are almost always apocryphal.
