Seeing as how I've never been in the military nor been a pilot, this word is one I never use. I think I've only personally known two people named Roger; one was an upperclassman back in high school and the other was a football coach in junior high. When I see or hear the word "roger", I think of this scene from the 1980 movie Airplane!.
