You wouldn't believe how much Folger's and Mt. Dew an Army battalion can go through in a week.

Caffeine (and triptofan from your holiday turkey) is about the only drug of choice left. Nicotine and aclcohol aren't PC in today's military.

My cousin worked the cats (catapults) on aircraft carriers and they lived on "Alert Five Coffee" where they would brew the coffee, dump it back in to re-brew it and they did this 5 times, hence the name. They also took coffee grounds and sucked on them directly. Dang, you won't get any sleep for 5 days. B-)
