Good entry - I particularly like the fact that you included the numbers - most lists of the phonetic alphabet miss those out.
You might want to consider putting the final approved version at the top, rather than the first version; the phrase "After further study and modification by each approving body, the revised alphabet was implemented November 1, 1951" sort of implies that this is the correct version, so it might not be clear to readers at first glance that the this alphabet isn't the correct one.

You refer to the British Forces alphabets before the international one was used (Abel, Baker), so I thought you might want the full lists:

Before the acceptance of the International Phonetic Alphabet, the one used by the British Forces was as follows:
Abel, Baker, Charlie, Dog, Easy, Fox, George, How (or Howie), Item, Jig, King, Love, Mike, Nan, Oboe, Peter, Queen, Roger, Sugar, Tare, Uncle, Victor, William, X-Ray, Yoke, Zebra

The one used by the Royal Air Force during WWII (the one which you hear in war films, where they say things like 'F-Freddy is missing') was as follows:
Apple, Beer (does that say something about RAF priorities?), Charlie, Dog, Edward, Freddy, George, Harry, In (or Indigo), Johnny (sometimes Jug), King, Love, Mother, Nuts, Orange, Peter, Queen, Roger (or Robert), Sugar, Tommy, Uncle, Vic (or Victor), William, X-Ray, Yorker (sometimes Yoke), Zebra

I'm trying to find the German phonetic alphabet I got when I was working with some Germans - I'll post it when I find it.

Thanks for the advice, I'll go do that now
