Operation Tonga Mug

Drop In for a Brew

Raise a mug to the pathfinders, paras, and glider troops who kicked off D-Day with Operation Tonga – the daring airborne assault behind enemy lines in the early hours of 6 June 1944. This mug honours the courage and chaos of those first boots (and wheels) on the ground in Normandy.

Perfect for your morning tea, late-night coffee, or anything in between – this is your go-to brew kit. Tough, glossy, and featuring a bold Operation Tonga design, it’s dishwasher-proof, microwave-safe, and ready for daily action.

• Ceramic – sturdy as a Horsa glider
• Comes in 11 oz, 15 oz, and 20 oz sizes
• Durable print that won’t fade under fire
• Lead and BPA-free
• Dishwasher and microwave safe
• Blank product sourced from China

A Bit About the Mug

Al Murray: Now, let’s talk about the Mug itself—this isn’t some cheap knockoff; it’s print-on-demand, which means no wasted stock sitting in a warehouse somewhere gathering dust. Instead, every unit is printed just for you, which is a win for both history lovers and the planet.

James Holland: Absolutely. But, and this is important—check your size before you order. We don’t want loads of returns bouncing around, adding to unnecessary emissions. Pick the right fit, wear it with pride, and show the world you know your history.

This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
