My father-in-law taught me a similar "A for" sequence, which I append below and will fill in as I remember it. Apologies for long post. Maybe someone else knows it? Unfortunately it involves celebrities from UK 1940s (I think). It could be updated.

There is also a lovely scene in "The Radio Ham" with Tony Hancock in which he is using the phonetic alphabet. But the other party doesn't understand (for example) "Alpha" so Tony starts in with "Alpha - A for apples, L for Lunch". I think he gets about 3 levels down before he gives up.

Some may not be correct -
Ishould have googled - it can be found at http://www.heenan.net/trivia/language/alfabet.html
