This Briefing Could Have Been An Email Mug

This Briefing Could Have Been An Email Mug

$15.99

Perfect for coffee, chow, or passive-aggressively signaling to your chain of command.

Whether you're deep in the field or stuck in another pointless PowerPoint marathon, this enamel mug tells it like it is. Lightweight and rugged—like that one E-4 who always finds a way to sneak out of formation—it’s built for coffee, chow, or whatever brown sludge your FOB calls “stew.”

Clip it to your ruck, toss it in your go-bag, or ceremonially raise it during your fifth Zoom meeting of the day. Just don’t heat anything in it directly unless you're trying to simulate a Class C mishap.

Enamel-coated with silver rim, just like grandma's Depression-era cookware

3.14″ tall x 3.25″ wide: big enough for caffeine, small enough to dodge inspections

Lead and BPA-free, unlike your last barracks room

Hand-wash only, because you’re not that high speed

Note: Will stain if used with coffee, tea, or other liquids that make life tolerable. For best results, scrub with lemon juice and regret.
