I wonder if that's possibly an east coast vs. west coast thing. We always said point (south east).

- amyjess 11y agoGrew up in North Texas, we all said point too.
- jharger 11y agoI grew up in the south-east, but then moved out west... in both places we said fourteen-four and twenty-eight-eight.
- steverb 11y agoAh. I thought the OP was implying they said "dot". We used both versions depending on context (twenty eight point eight and twenty eight eight). Might be an age thing though, I was post teen years when the movie came out and tended to hang out with a lot of overly precise military members/geeks.
- dec0dedab0de 11y agoDon't forget thirty-six-six.
- rconti 11y agoOr thirty-three-six.
