Ya know Harry, I served from '54 to '77, all on sea duty and I never saw one
of those mugs. All of the ships I served on were WWII vintage as well..
I think the mugs you discribe were pre-WWII since the ones we always had in
the general mess were white glass with a pair of green strips around the
top.. The same in the CPO mess but the Ward Room had china cup and saucers.
You probably are right about the vintage. The old fellow I'm talking
about is in his 80's.
