Listed above is the phonetic alphabet, something in which you are supposed to learn in basic training. I learned it after the class. Why? Because I spent that particular class in the dying cockroach. Eyeballing one of the drill sergeants, I don't know. Drill Sergeant Jackson always had it in for me.
