As we know, there was a British/Commonwealth Phonetic Alphabet during WW2, as well as a US one. The US one has survived to become the NATO version.
Does anyone know the origin of this Parody version of the Phonetic Alphabet? I believe it dates from around the ww2 period, quite possibly from a British comedian, but there is certain Canadian bias. Some of them you will have to say out loud to "get them".
