Should be 'Fore!'ward

The term (fore) means "look ahead", and it is believed to come from the military "beware before", which an artilleryman about to fire would yell alerting nearby infantrymen to drop to the ground to avoid the shells overhead (Wikepedia)

In other words, "incoming" load of bullsh*t.
