Menacing claim at work Harassment, Stalking, Misconduct

Still waiting on Nico.

 

Nico is cool.

Everyone waits on Nico.

 

Apparently the guide isn't so "definitive", lol.

As an addition, Soviet, and now Russian, submarine classes were named by NATO after letters of the alphabet since their actual names were usually not known in the West.

The Soviet submarine class named after the letter "A" was always called "Alfa" in every piece of naval literature I have ever seen, including the esteemed "Jane's Fighting Ships". I consider that the most definitive source there is.

 

I've never seen it spelled anything but Alpha.

 

Well then I think we can agree to disagree.

 

Fair enough.

 

In 14 years in the Army, I've only ever seen it spelled "alpha." Hmm.

 

You gotta remember that the current NATO phonetic alphabet was created in 1957.
It had to work not only for US English speakers, but French, German, Italian, and a bevy of other countries.

Here you go, straight from NATO:

Straight from the paws pf one of our NATO allies:

To ensure clear communication, NATO uses a number of well-known formats which are in general use. NATO standardization agreements enable forces from many nations to communicate in a way that is understood by all.

I always thought it was odd, but changed my mind after doing a two year tour at NATO HQ in Brussels.

So, yes, there is the US Army way, and the NATO way.

 

I just noted that I learned something new.

 

Alfa is correct. Said so in my crossword puzzle. Crossword puzzles are always correct.


Still no Nico, but the thread lives on.

 

Nico is cool, and has powers beyond one's imagination.

 

I feel like I'm a character in the play Waiting for Godot and Godot never shows up.

 

Charlie Brown STILL waits for the Great Pumpkin.

That's not foolish, that's faith, mate!

 

B, as in bulletin?

 

I'm guessing "B" as in Bullsh-t.

But if you tell us what you came here for, we will stop kidding around and will try to help you.

 

B as in Boobies?

 

It might be BABY?

Or, could it have anything to do with ammunition, as in BULLET?
