At Camp Adder, Iraq, my favorite place was Green Beans Coffee. Today I am in Newark Liberty Airport and saw a Green Beans coffee for the first time since I got back from Iraq. And they give military discounts. Coffee is free for soldiers.
The story of one of the baristas is here.
Good to know they are successful here as well as on American bases in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Veteran of four wars, four enlistments, four branches: Air Force, Army, Army Reserve, Army National Guard. I am both an AF (Air Force) veteran and as Veteran AF (As Fuck)
