Which code word represents the letter I?

Which code word represents the letter I?

• A. India
• B. Juliet
• C. Hotel
• D. Foxtrot

Answer: (A)

Think of the NATO phonetic alphabet, used in Coast Guard communications, where each letter has a unique code word to spell things clearly. The code word for the letter I is India, so that option is the correct one. Juliet, Hotel, and Foxtrot correspond to J, H, and F, not I. For practice, if you needed to spell “IN” over the radio, you’d say India November.
