Title pretty much says it all, I spent 13 years homeless. Did a lot of hitchhiking. I did get a nice 9-month break through a veteran's group which ends on September 30th, when I'll return to tent life in the sticks. Ask me anything!

It's actually called ITU phonetics. The International Telegraph Union invented it, and the military, police, and ham radio operators still use it! It comes easy enough, especially after you're issued your FCC call sign.

Oh that’s super cool! Thanks for teaching me about that.
