NUT
POWDER
Throughout history, we have
always admired people with the
guts and determination
to take on the impossible. Whether scaling Mount Everest or Landing on the
Moon, it was those who dared, who made the difference. The Chinese were
the first to recognize that where there is great risk, there is also great
opportunity, and it was Lao Tzu who so creatively stated that "the journey
of a thousand miles begins with one step." The secret to the first step is
simply Nut Powder. If you ask any gentleman who his best friends are, he
will tell you. Nut Powder is about taking care of your friends. Helen
Keller reminded us that, "Life is a daring adventure or nothing at all,"
and if you are someone who seeks the edge and limits of high achievement
in life, then you already realize the importance of keeping your friends
cool and comfortable in any situation. This is why we choose Nut Powder.

NUT
POWDER IN HISTORY
On the morning of 22 December 1944, a German surrender party approached
the encircled 101st Airborne Division. General Eisenhower had ordered the
101st to hold the town of Bastogne at all costs. The Germans has just
launched their largest offensive of the war on the Western Front, and the
Americans were completely surrounded, in freezing snowing low-visibility
conditions, not well equipped, and air resupply was not possible.
The Germans presented Acting Division Commander General Anthony McAuliffe
with a surrender ultimatum. McAuliffe wrote down a reply: "To the German
Commander -- "Nuts!" -- The American Commander." The Germans were not sure
if this was an affirmative or a negative response. The 101st then
proceeded to hold off the siege until reinforcements arrived from the 4th
Armored Division of Patton's 3rd Army. McAuliffe was awarded the
Distinguished Service Cross by General Patton on December 30, 1944.
Although, the very cold temperatures and lack of supplies during the
Battle of the Bulge did not permit the application of Nut Powder, General
McAuliffe exhibited the pure tenacity and "grace under pressure" that is
commonly demonstrated by those who employ the use of Nut Powder. It is for
this reason that we honor him and his fine choice of words. |
