Subdeacon Joe Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 During WWII, a 12-ounce draft at the Camp Pendleton beer garden cost only 10 cents compared to 25 cents off base. Marines drank so much discounted beer that Southern California ran out of paper cups. Pendleton had to resort to filling canteens for 15 cents. #SeaStorySaturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newsom's grandfather didn't ban the paper cups to protect landfills, and set an example for little Gavvy's future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
