sdandrea1 Hate is a strong word, believe us coffee drinkers are similar to bacon people, which I am not one, but they don't understand those who don't. I started drinking coffee during my Alert days-7 days with the boys. Never drank coffee on the plane though.
Don't meet too many non-coffee drinkers in DOD. The only thing that is different is no more smokers and greatly reduced smokers at the entrances/exits now.
