You are right about the coffee in the Exchanges. I've been dispatching boxes with bags of Seattle's Best and Starbucks to LCpl Namsman Jr. since he deployed. He says he's pretty popular with the coffee drinkers.
Namsman sends.
If Namsman Jr.'s base isn't getting coffee at the PX (it happened a lot in Babylon) I'd try getting some proof of this or something and contacting Starbucks HQ about shipping donations directly to that base. Most of the gratis stuff piles up at the log. and HQ bases, not getting to the troops who appreciate/need it the most. The bigger bases usually have all that anyways in the PX as the scumbags usually don't pull their C*^&^* around the flag pole. The command even has a gift shop here selling souvenirs so they can purchase stuff to send to the troops at the boonie bases.
If Jr. is pulling ops outside the gate S@#@#$ the coffee and get him some Modealert (Modafinil). It's all-eyes-and-ears + mental sharpness without the nerves, hype and side effects of stimulants. It counteracts sleep deprivation without jitteryness or nerves while increasing alertness and focus. It's also not addictive like stimulants.
So, sh!t on a shingle is no longer standard issue?
