and how do you pronounce jaguar and nissan
Even within the US military, seems like every other DD and DA form has it's own date format: ddmmyyyy, dd/mm/yyyy, ddmmmyyyy, yyyyddmm, yyyymmdd, mmddyyyy, mmmddyyyy. Can't we come up with a universal format?

I'll just say Jag, and I had a hard time adjusting to Nissan since I owned a few Datsuns back when they were still Datsun.

Up here in New England, where the letter "r" doesn't exist, instead of hearing "Porsh" or "Porsh-a", you will likely here it pronounced "Posh".
