Nothing to do with the phonetic alphabet, but I like the story of when the Australians sent a regiment to fight in the Vietnam war. It was on the TV news and an anti-war journalist pounced on the first guy off the aircraft, an Australian sergeant trooper with a big bush hat and challenged him. "Did you come here to die?" he sneered.
"No, mate", he said, "We came here yesterdie. We been travelling inside the country all todie."
