I’d heard Morse code is coming back too. Even for military pilots. I’d

You always had to learn Morse as a military pilot. Just not very fast. As
the identifiers on navigation aids was Morse. When I worked on TACAN, we
just looked at the tabs to make sure it was set up correctly.

We had to be able to copy 6 WPM in boot camp.
