I've added support to Emacs to convert text into the NATO phonetic
alphabet. I added it to the existing Morse code converter (morse.el),
using the existing code to complete the task. The commands are M-x
nato-region and M-x denato-region. (M-x unnato-region just wasn't as
fun sounding).
This is all an amusement, but I find this feature helpful to use
occasionally in phone conversations at work. I suppose I'd rather
convert small bits of text at a time, and have the output shown in the
Emacs echo area than converting the region "in place". I predict
people will probably want to try and integrate the functions in
morse.el to avoid duplicating the same code as I have done.
The patch is attached, and the file nato.txt helped me loosely confirm
that the conversion has a one-to-one correspondence.
Thanks for Emacs.

That's great! Very funny.
Thanks.
