Ive never heard anyone pronounce Quebec with a hard Q. I always thought it was 'kwuh-beck' (Im from the UK).

In the United States Army we've done the same. More Kweh than Kwuh, though. Least for every instance I ever heard.

Welcome to the Bravo Alpha Romeo.

Plan to order a drink? We serve more than Bravo Echo Echo Romeo.
You can recruit Charlie Romeo Echo Whiskey here, too.

It's worth mentioning that you can also check out the Tango Victor for the latest November Echo Whiskey Sierra.

Oh, what do you know? There's a Bravo Oscar Uniform November Tango Yankee out on some pirate.

Looks like you need something harder than Bravo Echo Echo Romeo. Lemme get that for ya along with some India November Foxtrot Oscar so I can let you get on your way to being Oscar Mike (O.M.)

Mkay, that's enough. Quick, jump from 1989 US to 1993 Japan's remake.

There.
Now I'll be embarrassed if by Bravo Alpha Romeo you were referring to B.A.R. (Barrier Armor Rating).
[Shots from 1989 Mechwarrior, and 1993 Japanese Mechwarrior).

Yep. Tay, I'm done poking my fun on the semi-off-topic-yet-not. (Side note, had a tooth extracted, so yeah.)
Only had to look up one letter because I wasn't sure; proud of myself. It's been since 2004 since I used my modern phonetics.

This should be stickied. I can't count the number of times I've had someone yelling '-ee four! -ee four!' on VoIP and I had to confirm what square they were talking about because bee, dee and eee all sound the freaking same. It's bad enough I have to do this everyday at work, too.
