I'm confused why ten is substituted with a musical instrument

We’re still doing “phrasing”!

I started off nonplussed but by the time I got to the end I was mildly amused.

I will always use "M as in 'Mancy'"

As someone who had to learn the actual NATO alphabet, if I look too hard at this, I'm likely to give myself a stroke.

This is diabolical. Thanks, I hate it.

Lol - "Q as in Queue" hahahaha I bet someone thinks this is official enough to use.
I hope someone uses this, religiously, for life. :)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO_phonetic_alphabet

The spelling is actually also important for non-english speakers.

Alpha is hard to pronounce if you aren't familiar with English ph, so it should be an F.

Juliet should have two T's to ensure romance language speakers pronounce the T.
