Cup Of Joe
According to the June 2004 issue of Sea magazine (volume 96, no. 6, page
22): When Josephus Daniels became secretary of the Navy in 1913, he
prohibited alcohol aboard all U.S. Navy vessels - making coffee the
strongest drink that could be served on board. For that reason, sailors
started referring to a mug of strong coffee as "a cup of Joe".
