Having experienced tea in the field like the
Brits did in WWII. I can honestly say that it's a
bloody sight good at the end of a day fighting
Jerries. Even when they're not shooting at you
and you're not looking at death all through a
cold day, it's a bloody wonder to roll into
harbor and start brewing up some tea.
Its like beer or lemonade at the end of a long hot day.
