This week we'll delve into the following:
- The inside story on why soldiers needed ice cream to keep going during WWII--the U.S. Navy spent $1 million converting a barge into a floating ice cream factory that made 10 gallons of ice cream every seven minutes.
- During the war, Tom Carvel was selling ice cream at Ft. Bragg and according to Carvel lore learning the freezer business--but it was his brother Bruce who was developing the freezers that would make Tom Carvel a multi-millionaire.
- How Tom was able to take credit for his brother's freezer inventions and get away with it.
- The seeds for this love/hate relationship between the brothers were planted early on, with Bruce being the eldest, the favorite, and "the handsome one."
