Abbreviations/Jargon

[55blacktie]

I just realized that the unfamiliar might not have a clue when abbreviations, jargon, etc. are used in a post. Don't assume the reader knows what you're talking about. Some of the newer/younger members might be better versed in 21st-century English (if you can call it that-LOL). Still living in the 20th century, I have trouble understanding the latter and often have to search for a definition. if things keep going the way they are, we'll soon be using sign language exclusively (I know a few of the commonly used ones but avoid using them).

I agree. Some of them seem like they're just making up a name for a part.

You had better not type a police report with all of those and when the judge reads that
oh boy. So keep it up we all going to be goblin like turkeys. Spell It Out boys..not all of us are kids...

Don't let the military know not to use abbreviations. I had a PCS then went TDY before my ETS. Left in my POV. WTF?
