When "keep cool" just isn't awesome enough. This is a Stock Phrase that a leader will typically say to his troops right as it's all about to hit the fan. It's extra badass because it encourages others to be as badass as the speaker himself. More associated with modern warfare and Space Marines than Military Tropes of the past.
Not to be confused with a certain Snowlem.

In X-Men Legends II,, if you've selected Iceman as one of your four-member team in the character select screen, he'll say "Stay frosty, team!" if he's the one who's going to talk (everyone has a phrase; no knowing whose you'll get.)

In the Space Ghost Coast to Coast episode "Snatch", replicating pods have taken over the studio and are waiting for our heroes to fall asleep in order to take over their bodies. They cannot leave the studio because the planet has been coated by the Blob. In the midst of this dilemma, Zorak comes up with an ingenious escape plan.

One of the patrolling militia soldiers in the Seasons of Infamy DLC of Batman: Arkham Knight tells his comrades to stay frosty while they guard the tankard on which they're keeping Mr. Freeze captive. This tankard is run across an iceberg, so one of the other militia soldiers can't help but laugh at the unintended pun.

Occasionally used meaningfully in MechWarrior video games. Since Over Heating is a serious concern, most Mechwarriors really would prefer their rides run cool instead of hot. Very few get to stay cool, however.

Probably made famous by Corporal Hicks in the movie Aliens. It also makes perfect sense coming from him, as he does remain quite frosty under pressure (compare with Hudson & Gorman). He even falls asleep during the dropship ride to the surface. Ironically Private Frost (who's referred to as 'Frosty' at one point) has already been killed when Hicks gives this trope, so this could be Tempting Fate.

Uttered by Jim Raynor in the original StarCraft. Bonus points for the fact that the cutscene takes place on a Volcano Planet.
And again in the very first mission of StarCraft II.
And by a generic Medic in the expansion. "Stay frosty and get the job done!"
And ironically by the Firebat, in more than one way (both uses flame weapons and military-grade stimulants in combat).

One of the lines in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. It comes during a sequence which borrows a lot of lines from Aliens, making it a Shout-Out. Later used to the point of absurdity in Modern Warfare 2, especially since the ones yelling it are the ones who need to take their own advice.

Battlestar Galactica ("Razor"). The "stay frosty" line is used by one of the Space Marines boarding the Hybrid vessel; as his name is Hudson, it's likely a deliberate Shout-Out to Aliens.
