Difficult words or groups within the text of plain text

messages may be spelled using the phonetic alphabet and
preceded by the proword " I SPELL " If the operator can
pronounce the word to be spelled, he will do so before
and after the spelling to identify the word,
Where a text is composed of pronounceable words, they

will be spoken as such, Where a text is encrypted, the
groups, even though occasionally pronounceable, are to

be transmitted by the phonetic equivalents of the indi-

vidual letters and without using the proword "I SPELL,"
