Flny publication pretending to give a picture of any Naval activity would be meaningless as hell without some consideration of the institution of Joe or coffee, as it is seldom called This article will attempt to cover the rise of joe in the Naval service Considerable re- search by the Menifee Yearbooks staff has been in- volved and although some veteran joe swallowers may find slight inaccuracies here and there we believe the story as a whole is a pack of hes To begm with joe was discovered m Plmerica by radarmen of Christopher Columbus famed task force OO who had to fmd something to keep them awake on the mid-watch. They claimed they talked some Indian maids into revealing the secret of brewing joe during a 48 in Norfolk. This, of course, was a lie. They really got the dope from an obscure chief named Ten-Ton- Boom in exchange for a mattress cover and a pack of Camels. Then we come to the Limeys and Hdmiral Nelson, whose last words, as every schoolboy knows, were too damn much cream! , , . . . v I ' , , , . . lla 1: , , . . . 1 ll: ll n ' ' -, . . 1 . I - . . . . .

We also borrowed a cup of sugar, the fgalley being secured at the time. -.. 7 ,f lx In the United States Navy, joe really made out. From a position of obscurity, it rose, in the highest Naval traditions, to distinction. Fit first, it was brewed in Worn- out sickbay gear. However, it got better and better treat- ment until it was compounded from a formula according to the Naval Pharmacopoeia in chromium jobs which blew Early Chow when the joe was done. The Bureau of Naval Personnel was not slow in realizing the importance of joe . It immediately cre- ated the rates of Ioeman 3c CHHD KLCD CRSVPD CTD to the warrant rank of Chief joe Pourer CCIPD. It was a right arm rate with the insignia of a crow drinking, from a regulation Navy cup, joe without cream. Cr sugar. From there on, of course, the newspapers take over. We all remember reading how joe was credited with winning the Battle of Midway, for taking Mount Sura- bachi, and for shooting down countless Kamakaze planes. 92
