Bravo Zulu comes from Allied Tactical Pub 01 (ATP-01-G-1) a NATO publication for naval signaling. The 2016 copy is Version (G) Edition (1).

It was technically classified Confidential (only certain parts) when I was using it regularly in the late 70s & early 80s. It was generally declassified in the early 2000s.

There is a VERY long list of two letter (flag) combinations. Bravo & Zulu just happened to be the next combination when the creators got down to the message "Well Done".

I have a Bravo Zulu sticker on my car to go with my "Spy Navy" bumper sticker.
