ALPHABET

THE MILITARY

alphabet is a system of
standardized words used to
represent each letter of the
alphabet during
communication. It is used
by military, aviation, and
other organizations that
need clear, concise
communication to avoid
misunderstandings,
particularly in noisy or
adverse conditions.

WHY?
The military alphabet
assigns a unique word to
each letter of the alphabet,
such as "Alpha" for A,
"Bravo" for B, "Charlie" for C,
and so on. By using the
phonetic alphabet,
individuals can clearly spell
out words, names, or other
important information,
reducing the chance of
misunderstandings and
errors.

IN THE USA

By Law, the United States of America and its territories use nine time zones, with most of
the county observing DST (daylight saving time) for much of spring, fall, and summer
months. From west to east, the nine US time zones are Chamorro Standard Time
(UTC+10), Samoa Standard Time, Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time (HST), Alaskan
Standard Time (AKST), Pacific Standard Time (PST), Mountain Standard Time, Central
Standard Time, Eastern Standard Time (EST), and Atlantic Standard Time (AST). The
contiguous US observes four time zones, while Hawaii, Alaska, and each of the five
territories has its time zone. The Department of Transportation regulates the DST and time
zone boundaries in the US.
