Men in situations like that, those kind of men aren't always the most PC

What time is it there in Greeat Britain, Lady E? The sun is just now coming up here in the West US (Nampa, Idaho).

We have half a foot of snow on the ground this morning too, and it's just below the freezing mark. No school for the UM, snow's too deep. Snoopy dance time for her!

I'm guessing special forces types are trained to hold their breaths until it passes. Holding my breath has always cured them for me.

Ok this is gonna sound completely daft, but it works on the same principle as the post by Orion, it isnt pretty and people around you think you are nuts, but it works if you follow it carefully.
First, you need to close off all the orifices in your head..... fingers pressing against ears (thumbs) then fingers blocking your nostrils(not UP) but close them down. Close your eyes tight, and take a deep breath, close your mouth, then(and this is the important part) swallow five times without breathing. Its quite hard actually but if you do that it somehow normalises the spasm in the diaphragm.
Seems to work with people I have convinced to try it, and I always do it

I read somewhere that hiccups are a result of you not getting enough oxygen so try some deep breathing. If that doesn't work sometimes you just have to wait it out.

I take a deep breath, then expand my chest up (which stretches my diapghram), and then kind of clench my insides for 15 seconds or so, while holding my breath. Rarely have more than 2 hiccups before they pass.

Sit quietly.. close your eyes and "wait for the next hiccup".. works for me and I cured a co-worker with this technique just last week :) It's all about calming the diaphragm.

Controlled breathing works every time.

Essentially, most of these techniques work in the same way: they cause you to slow your breathing and thus increase the level of CO2 in your lungs. The Carbon dioxide causes your muscles to relax and this quells the spasam of the diaphram that is the cause of your hiccups. Most of these will work. But, all you really need to do is hold your breath for as long as you can, then breathe normaly for a few moments, then hold it again.... repeat until you've hiccupped about three or four times... At that point, they should go away...

If they persist, go to your local grocery, and ask for a small styrofoam cup of dry ice, and breathe the CO2 coming off of it for a few moments... Careful that you don't over do it and pass out.

Both have worked well for me.

Yes hello there i know this might not sound very nice but to get rid of hiccups.You need to scare yourself,have a fright/scare if you will,it's the only thing i know that actually works.I hate horror films personally,as they are so negative.But if you are able to watch one now it might actually help you to get rid of your hiccups.Well hope that has been of help to you,and hope you get better soon.My very best wishes to you from Paul.
