Larry,

Since the net was using tactical calls, I went with the "slang" 
spelling rather than the actual place name spelling.

No, I haven't seen any previous use of the frequency for similar 
operations.  You may sleep through most of our meetings, but you 
didn't miss this one! >:-}

Also, I didn't post it, but the entire net consisted of:

Hammering Hank
Proud Victory
Proud Warrior
Nagadocious - Nacogdoches
Recon Warrior
Lightning Strike
First Sealord
Vibrant
War Hero (who also identified as the Arleigh Burke (Only one slip of 
the tongue, however & then immediately corrected)
