The beauty of forms is you can use any bastardized formation of words and people understand what you are trying to say. I don't get graded on my posts in here, so its all good to me.

Also i want to add i always thought it is sure and not shure... is shure some way of new spelling or the amrican spelling? I see it a lot.

Shure as in SM58? or is it a SM57? maybe it was a SM48 or SM87A.

According to Webster online both english words came from "Middle French ordenance, literally, act of arranging"

Prescription == ordonnance

In that case, since I'm having some trouble with city hall right now, I have a ordonnance for my problems. I'll go down there with some ordnance and re-ordenance there ordinances with said ordonnances.

in my wwi squads we practice brevity code when on missions, i think thats something we could all work on in ah, i often hear ppl say " con" when really a con is a blip on the radar , and they are using it to describe an unidentified airplane dot, bogey is the correct term, and bandit is if its an enemy.

SM58s for Toms and vocals, SM57s for Guitar amps, and snare... maybe vocals on a very windy day

ya should be "bandit on your 6"

from sim hq

Bogey: an unidentified visual contact

Bandit: Known enemy air craft, only used when enemy is confirmed hostile.

Contact: Radar/ir contact;should include bearing, range atitude, bulls eye, or geographic position information, can be used in place of Tally Ho.
