Geocache Description:



Tradicionalno mornari u Kraljevskoj mornarici svakodnevno su dobivali bocu ruma. Izvorno je to bio čisti rum, međutim, 1740. godine, bijedni stari git zvan Admiral Vernon (nadimak Admiral Grog zbog svojeg grogram ogrtača) naredio je da se iz ekonomskih razloga rum razrijedi pola rum, a pol voda, mornarički rum je tog dana bio nazvan „Grog“.


Traditionell wurden Seeleute in der Royal Navy seit jeher täglich mit Rum versorgt. Ursprünglich war das ein ordentlicher Rum, doch im Jahre 1740 ordnete ein elender alter Idiot namens Admiral Vernon (Spitzname Admiral Grog wegen seines Grogram-Umhangs) an, dass der Rum aus Gründen der Sparsamkeit ab diesem Zeitpunkt halb und halb mit Wasser verdünnt werden sollte – der Navy Rum wurde seitdem immer „Grog“ genannt.


Traditionally seamen in the Royal Navy have always been issued with a tot of rum daily. Originally this was neat rum, however in 1740, a miserable old git called Admiral Vernon (nicknamed Admiral Grog, because of his grogram cloak), ordered that for reasons of economy the rum ration should be diluted half and half with water, from then on Navy rum was always called “Grog”.
