• The construction and contents of a particular slop-shoot are thus described by Dr. Whitmore[?]. It was a large space of about 200 feet square, built up at the sides to a considerable height by means of paving stones, so that the liquid matter thrown into it should not escape, and this was filled up to a height of some six feet with what is called the “slop” from the streets.
• In every passageway where the passengers’ cabins are situated, there is a steward’s station. This is a small space provided with a working table with either a fixed or a folding seat, a locker for storing cleaning materials and a slop sink (see section 184) or a slop shoot (see section 166 part I).
• “Mac can drink a whole battalion under a mess hall slop shoot.” … “Get off it, you chickenfucker! Show that hairy ass you call a face or I'll open the slop-shoot and drop in that fucking lipstick! …”

• The combined club system. I know years ago when I first came in the Marine Corps, I could go down to the slop shoot—that is what we referred to them as in those days; buy a drink for 10 cents; staff sergeants, 15 cents; officers, 20 cents.

• “I have an announcement to make. After tonight’s dance, there will be free beer for all Marines in the slop-shoot.” The slop-shoot is a Marine nickname for the enlisted men’s club. … Some of the Marines had convinced a few of the gals to head to the slop-shoot with them. I hung around for a half hour until the tug of the 3.2 beer dragged me in the direction of the slop-shoot. Off I went.
• We would get a one-page typed reply, and we would go to the slop-shoot and editorialize over several cans of beer.
