Learn the NATO Phonetic Alphabet

I decided to learn the NATO phonetic alphabet because I kept finding myself in phone conversations trying to spell out words to people who were using cell phones and didn't have very good audio quality. I thought that it would be fun to have a practice tool that could generate random sentences for me to practice spelling. So I create a website with a couple of interactive quizzes. For a while, I was having it email me a random word every day and then I could practice spelling the word. After I became pretty proficient with the alphabet I discontinued the service, but the translator tool and the practice tool are still available at the website www.YankeeZulu.info.
