The official AHF Allies & Neutral States quiz thread
We've had several different quizes running here in the forum for a while with great success and this new section has been open for a while without one, so I'm starting one here too.
The rules are very simple:
The first one to post the correct answer to a question, posts a new question (must be on the WW2 Allies or neutral states) and so on.

Okay . . .
Define these terms:
BGCAP
BLACKJACKJCAP
DADCAP
DCAP
DUMBOCAP
JACKCAP
MOUSETRAP
NIGHTCAP
RAPCAP
RELCAP
RESCAP
SPOTCAP
SUBCAP
TOMCAT
WATCHDOG
There's 15, so I guess probably 12 right would be a correct answer.
Extra credit . . . who, specifically, dreamed up most of these terms and during what period of time.
Regards,
Rich

I think you are correct about this Andy H. Here are some others found at: http://www.hazegray.org/faq/#mil bottom of the page.Does CAP stand for Combat Air Patrol, and that words ending with CAP are different types of CAP?. Such as SubCAP being Submarine Comabt Air Patrol!
BGCAP=battleship group combat air patrol
DADCAP=dawn and dusk combat air patrol
RESCAP=rescue combat air patrol
Maybe someone else can build upon these and Andy H.'s information to create a correct answer. I have the feeling I should know or remember the creator of these terms and the key to finding the answer.
