Dixie Cup

Navy
Definition

The iconic white canvas hat worn by enlisted sailors with dress whites. Looks exactly like an upside-down paper cup. A perfectly crisp one means new arrival; a beat-up floppy one means they've seen things.

Example Usage

"Boot showed up to quarters with a Dixie cup so starched it could cut glass. Give it three months."
