Never Forget Black Tot Day ~ The Day the Navy Went Dry
On 31 July 1970 the Royal Navy poured its last daily rum ration and a tradition older than most countries went over the side. Sailors held mock funerals. Some of them, apparently, never stopped mourning.
- Veteran's Remembrance: For the sailor who still raises a glass on the last day of July and expects you to join.
- History Buff's Conversation Starter: The date is real, the grief is real, and the story at the bar gets better every year.
- Rum Locker Memorial: The locker observes the anniversary properly, which is to say with a full measure.
Damien swears the best stories start after sundown on the dock, when the breeze turns cool and nobody wants to go below deck ~ this Comfort Colors long sleeve tee is made for exactly that watch: soft garment-dyed ring-spun cotton, a relaxed lived-in fit and sleeves all the way to the wrist, sizes S through 3XL ~ hoist the colors and stay out a little longer
