They're interchangeable and either one is acceptable. Trust me.   |
The
Phonetic Alphabet is something we all should understand.
Ever heard somebody try to spell something out on the phone and you can't understand a thing they're saying? You have a Whiskey Tango Foxtrot moment.
Take the word Alphabet. (for some reason your friend can't spell it)
Instead of saying a-l-p-h-a-b-e-t, you say Alpha Lima Papa Hotel Alpha Bravo Echo Tango. It would clear up all that time spent trying to figure out stuff. Plus it sounds cool.

If you've ever been in a public school and a military post school, the difference between the attitudes of the kids are like night and day. Military brat is an unfair title for those kids.

Never been in a Post school...but I always respected the kids in the military families. They don't get to settle down and have friends and a regular neighborhood. They move on a moments notice and leave everything behind to start again.
They deserve a salute.
