The impportance of having a NATO phonetic alphabet is so police or army personel don't misunderstand the spelling of a place or registration plate .e.g. picture this situation you are at police HQ listening to officers in a car chase...they lose him. one PC can recall the number plate so he tells you so you can dispatch a few more units to search for the car he says, MSO-767-N.....but you mistake it for NSO-767-Mand you nick the wrong guy! But if he said: mike sierra Oscar- 767-November you would NT of mistaken it!
