phonetic alphabet
The phonetic language is used by professional communicators, especially police, military and other emergency and armed forces, to identify letters precisely, either when communicating initials, abbreviations or spellings of words. The phonetic alphabet is a useful reference for language and communications study and training. Different variations of the phonetic langauge exist - this one seems to be the original and still most widely used.
Used by communicators the world over to clarify letters and spellings.
