    Phonetic Alphabet

    I was wondering, does the phonetic alaphabet differ from place to place just like the 10 codes do, or is there a "standard" that every department uses?

    That's because it is in the supporting members area. The answer is yes, it differs from department to department, country to country.

    Phonetic alphabets vary, but are pretty much standard from place to place. Some places use the civilian version, some use the military version, some use their own version. Those that use the civilian version pretty much stay consistent with this:

    Adam
    Boy (or Baker)
    Charles
    David
    Edward
    Frank
    George
    Henry
    Ida
    John
    King
    Lincoln
    Mary
    Nora
    Ocean
    Paul
    Queen
    Robert
    Sam
    Tom
    Union
    Victor
    William
    X-Ray
    Young
    Zebra

    Maybe this helps, maybe it doesn't. I hope for the former.

    Thanks, I had a feeling it was basically the same everywhere. I wouldn't mind seeing some variations though if someone could post them or PM them to me.

    Ok, so basically there are two different phonetic alphabets. The "civilian" one which is adam boy charles ect, and the military one, which is alpha brave charlie ect. Ok, thank you greenlead, tpd cadet, and jbu2010, you were a big help.

    It is more of a Police Alphanumeric system, and a Military Alphanumeric system. ;)

    Don't ask why we use the Military for my PD :confused: And no problem
