Jake,

Lancer1562 got it. Considering the responses I've gotten from folks from other parts of the country I'd always thought it was more of a Southern thing. Given that in the Army there are people constantly inside that range, the same with big cities, I generally revise it to refer to people either intentionally getting inside that space or actually laying hands on me. Of course, people in your unit generally get a bit more leeway.

YMOS,
