Sailor Words, an eBook by Chief Chuck

We've heard certain phrases or sayings since we were children. "You better mind your Ps and Qs!" "Well, this is a boondoggle" "He's three sheets to the wind, get him a cup of Joe."

Where did these come from and what do they mean? Who coined them and why? 

Well, as a 24 year Navy veteran, naval history and heritage were constant parts of my training and soon became an interest and a hobby of sorts, finding and sharing bits of nautical trivia. 

Sailor Words is a look at some of the more common phrases you've heard and how they originated from our storied and long nautical history.
