> Do they pronounce it leemo or limmo?

I've been hearing it like the latter (short for limosine?), although who 
really knows for sure?

I'm also still hearing JENA, so there is probably a difference between 
the two.

For a while there was a USAF tanker callsign CABAL and I heard a LOT of 
aircrew pronounce it like "CABLE" (KAY-bull) vs kuh-BALL.

Good times!
