hink441 Posted March 12, 2016 Share #1 Posted March 12, 2016 Found this 50lb coffee bag recently. US Navy bag dated 1953 from the Brooklyn Navy Depot. The Depot closed in 1953 and this bag is unused. Thought this was unusual and cool. Thanks for looking. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wharfmaster Posted March 12, 2016 Share #2 Posted March 12, 2016 Now that is cool. Ships never leave port without plenty of coffee. Wharf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenchbuff Posted March 12, 2016 Share #3 Posted March 12, 2016 Great piece! First one I've ever seen. I wouldn't have survived all those long watches without coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hink441 Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share #4 Posted March 12, 2016 Thanks, I must admit that I have also consumed more than my share of Navy Coffee!! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted March 23, 2016 Share #8 Posted March 23, 2016 Those are cool! Never seen them before (and believe me, I've had my fair share of Navy coffee...and preferably from the Chief's Mess...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willys43 Posted April 17, 2016 Share #9 Posted April 17, 2016 Those are really interesting! Quite a necessary but unknown item! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
