You’re correct. It is known as DLI.

In my defense, I was a French linguist for the Navy: we always called the school, L’Institute de Langue Militaire. This translates as “The Military Language Institute”. Close to Defense Language Institute, but not exact.

Thirty years tends to affect a person’s memory. And I was always told, this isn’t the ‘real’ Navy, you know!
