If I guess the context... Tango shouldn't be plural and, like you, 38 degrees isn't Northwest. OTOH.... has this anything to do with dance? Tango equals target. SpecOp speech. I was thinking about this last night and what I think they meant was "Two Tangos - Northwest at 9 o'clock high" 9 o'clock high would be about 38 degrees. Of course, nothing like reality in a TV drama eh, what? |
