How coffee helped the Union army win the Civil War
Coffee: Is there anything it can’t do?
MY SAY: I remember 'Ranger Pudding' in Basic Training field training, and in OCS. That's everything, folks! Sugar, creamer, hot chocolate and instant coffee, add water to taste! Hooah! In Iraq, it was coffee and Red Bull!

Great article. Several sources I've seen mention that the soldiers of both sides would, on picket duty in the quiet times between battles, declare local truces and swap rumors, tales, news, jokes, newspapers, and especially coffee (which the bluecoats had) for tobacco (that the graybellies had). Drove the officers nuts when they would find out.
