"It started with the successful mission to transport two gallons of
whiskey from a local tavern back to West Point. William Burnley,
Alexander Center, and Samuel Roberts were the student-soldiers
responsible, and their smuggled booze would be used to brace the bowl of
eggnog set aside for the North Barrack’s Christmas party. While the
idea of pouring good whiskey into what is essentially pancake batter may
seem a grievous mistake, keep in mind that it was the holidays and
these cadets were mostly giddy teenagers."
