The goal of every Naval Aviator anyway is to sound cool on the radio especially when stressed. It just is. Therefore extraneous words are omitted when possible. The response to ‘call the ball; assuming you can see it is ‘roger ball’ or better ‘rog ball’.

Actually, “sounding cool” is the last thing on a Real Naval Aviator’s mind as he’s lining up for a landing onto a pitching postage stamp in the middle of a potential watery grave.

Tom ‘maverick’ Cruise could do it because he was in the studio and had as many ‘takes’ as needed to get it right.
