LPC is military humour slang standing for leather personnel carrier — a sardonic euphemism for a soldier's boot or the act of marching on foot. The joke works by reframing the humble boot in the language of military vehicle designations (APC = armoured personnel carrier, BPC = Bradley personnel carrier), implying that the lowly infantryman's mode of transport is simply their own two feet in leather. It captures the grunt's self-deprecating pride in doing it the hard way.
No helicopter for this patrol — the sergeant said they were going by LPC all the way to the objective.
