do you watch war movies ? you know those wwii or vietnam war movies. one of the things that strike me most about military movies are the lingo that are used by them to communicate with one another. remember tv series combat, when vic morrow was communicating on the radio,"Checkmate King Two"

so what if we were to use it in our everyday life, how would it actually sound like. imagine you are having a conversation on the handphone with dad on the way home for cny.

u: bravo 1, this is blue squadron, do you copy bravo 1
dad: negative, bravo 1,
u: bravo 1, this is blue squadron, i say do you copy
dad: roger that blue squadron

u: there's a bogey at 6 o'clock, requesting to release fox 1, fox 2 & fox 3
dad: negative blue squadron, i think you need some go juice now
u: affirmative, started at zero-dark-thirty, do you have my gouge ?
dad: there's a goo coming up at 0400. did you run a routine check
