Federal phonetics

[catbird]

Any educated guesses on agencies?
Sierra Charlie
Sierra Papa
Foxtrot
Hotel Papa
Delta
Alpha

Thanks!

Trick question? Those are standard phonetics used by just about every Federal agency in existence... How about using in a sentence or frequencies or something like that?

Sorry,
Heard traffic at USEC facility.

I think it will help us to answer if we know what context are the phonetics used on. Is it a "Status Code", a unit designator or a location prefix.

[catbird]

Unit designators.
Sierra Papa & Sierra Charlie seem to be security
Foxtrot possible fire
These are all on same agency and fleet with different subfleets

[CqDx]

That's your answer

[catbird]

Thanks!
I was just curious to what the Sierra Papa and Sierra Charlie could represent?
Foxtrot (Fire)

In this context, it may be the Health Physics team, the folks concerned with radiation safety. Just a guess...
