This durable enamel metal mug pays tribute to Camp Toccoa, the legendary US Army training camp during the early years of World War II.
Featuring a classic white enamel finish with a strong metal base, this mug is ideal for daily use as well as outdoor activities, camping, or WWII re-enactment events.
It holds 300 ml, measures 80 mm in height and 80 mm in diameter – the perfect size for a strong cup of coffee or tea, just like the paratroopers enjoyed during their intense training days.
Historical context
Camp Toccoa, Georgia, was established in 1940 and became famous as the training ground of the US paratroopers, including the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment (“Easy Company”), known from Band of Brothers. Thousands of recruits began their grueling training here, including the infamous run up Currahee Mountain. This mug commemorates that historic place and the courage of the men who trained there.
