One of my Aunts was a person to behold on Ouija. She could make it go so fast you could hardly keep up reading what it was spelling out. And in her hands it always spelled out something.
One evening at a time when my brother was in the Air Force and there was a War in Vietnam, Ouija spelled out "sea" while my Aunt was at the Ouija Board.
"Sea?," we all asked. I recall saying that my brother was not very likely to enlist in the Navy and serve at sea.
Sometime later our consensus take on what Ouija spelled out that night was that my brother was going to Southeast Asia. "SEA" became a widely known acronym later, but it was not widely known that night, in fact, it was hardly known at all then.
Without telling his family, my brother re-enlisted in the Air Force. Soon after, he got orders sending him to Vietnam in, yes, SEA, Southeast Asia.
