The words of the phonetic alphabet were selected in order to minimize any chance that a listener might confuse one for another. That’s especially helpful when one is straining to listen to radio transmissions that are weak, choppy, or partially jammed.

VividPotion6704, I would normally spell it with one 't' or an 'e' on the end but if you go to the NATO website, they have spelt it as Juliett.

Player #3886806, No they don't. The Canadian military doesn't use different ones. Neither does any Nato Navy who work together with us at sea.

It's quite usefull to know the NATO alphabet, especially when you're relaying information with a word that needs spelling out. Many people spell my name wrong, so I correct them as I use the correct spelling ...

BlueQ, some police departments use this or the US military alphabet. But not all do. I recently overheard a police radio broadcast of a car license plate use other words so I asked the officer. She explained the variation.
