COBRA acronym, Iozzy, maybe too UK a reference?

Cabinet
Office
Briefing
Room
A

"COBR began life as an emergency situation centre which was developed as part of a review of civil contingency machinery following the 1972 miners’ strike. The origins of it being referred to as Cabinet Office Briefing Room A (COBRA) are not clear. It may have been confused with a Treasury briefing room A or because it made the acronym more obvious and memorable. In the 1970s briefing room F was commonly used."
