ARMY ALPHABET MOBILE EDITION
for cell phones and other mobile devices

Since many military people use cell phones, smart phones, palm computers, and other mobile devices to access the internet, we decided to create a special version of our Army Alphabet page just for these folks.

And why should I learn the Army Alphabet?
Learn the Army Alphabet for everyday use. Use it for mail orders, internet orders, calling about bills, talking to the phone company, cable company, utility company, etc. Use it to impress your relatives, friends, family. And finally, use the Army Alphabet to impress your girlfriend or boyfriend. Besides it sounds really cool over a walkie-talkie or even a speaker phone.

The Pain Of Giving Out Your Email Address Over The Phone
Have you ever experienced trying to give your web address or email address over the phone? If so, you understand the pitfalls of the English Alphabet when it comes to transmitting alphabet information over a telephone line. The problem is that many of the letters sound too much alike and are hard to distinguish from each other. For example, "B, C, D, E, G, P, T, V, Z" all end with the "ee" sound and "F and S" are also very confusing. Now that's where the Army Alphabet comes in. The Army figured out a long time ago that if you're going to transmit information about bombing targets that you better be darn sure that you get that information right. They had to devise a system to minimize errors. They came up with a Phonetic Alphabet that would assign an easily distinguishable word to each letter in the alphabet. This made it possible to relay information over radios and telephones in a more efficient and accurate manner. Now why can't we apply this wonderful alphabet technology to the modern civilian world where millions of people are having the daunting task of relaying web and email address information over the phone lines. They could be managing their back account, discussing their phone bill, or ordering the latest fancy electronic gadget from an online web store, but in any case they still need to transfer alphabetic information. That information could be the billing or shipping address, model number or product code, or it could be the most difficult of them all, the email address. The bottom line is that the Army Alphabet could benefit society on the whole by making the transfer of information easier, faster, and more accurate just like it did for the military. In fact, I think it would be a good idea if everyone started printing little "Army Alphabet" charts and sticking them to their computer monitors, so they could have it there for quick and easy reference. I use it every time I go out for Fast Food and have to talk to that horrible drive-thru speaker system. Just think what you could do with the Army Alphabet.

PRACTICE EXERCISE
Think of your favorite web site and then break it down into the Army Alphabet components and then do a practice dry run of what it would sound like transferring it over the phone. For example, let's say I want to give the web address of those funny Rj55 Cartoons to my good friend back home in the Alabama. This would be a good time to use the Army Alphabet. I could simple tell my friend to that she needs to type ROMEO JULIET FIFE FIFE DOT COM

RJ55.com =

ROMEO + JULIET + FIFE + FIFE + DOT + COM

Notice that you don't really have to translate the "DOT COM" because most people are already familiar with that term, but you might have to translate other domain extensions that are not quite as familiar to the general public.

0 = Zero = ZE RO
