Where was this phrase originated? One of the most agreed opinions was from the abolishment of the officers'
wine mess by the secretary of the US Navy, Admiral Josephus 'Joe' Daniels. From that time on, the strongest
drink aboard navy ships was coffee and over the years, a cup of coffee became known as "a cup of Joe".
Among his numerous reforms, Josephus Daniels was also known for favoring promotion from the ranks and
inaugurating the practice of making 100 sailors from the fleet eligible for entrance into the Naval Academy
annually, and the introduction of women into the service.
