Question Military terms on civ radio?

Nowhere else to say this, so I'll say it here: PLEASE stop using military terms on civilian radio. Every single time I hear "dispersal" and "recovery" my hairs rise. Leave the top gun behind, will ya?

So letting you know I'm feet dry on recovery and wish to proceed to initials for the break is not acceptable? Can I PD and call high key low key on a PFL after a sesh of UP's? Happy days then but don't use 'em anymore......honest.

Jabberjaw: you sound to me like a failed military aircrew selection.

Grow up and get a life FFS.
