Скачать или смотреть Pacific Fleet Cooks Had No Freezers in 1943 — So Sailors Built Ice-Cream Machines From Spare Parts

In 1943, the U.S. military faced an impossible problem: they couldn't keep ice cream frozen for troops in the Pacific. But this wasn't just about dessert—blood plasma was spoiling, medicine was degrading, and soldiers were dying from wounds that should have been survivable. The solution came from an unexpected source: Frederick McKinley Jones, a self-taught African American inventor who built the world's first mobile freezer. His invention didn't just deliver ice cream to war zones—it saved thousands of lives and quietly revolutionized the entire modern world.

This is the untold story of how a simple freezer changed everything from supermarkets to vaccine distribution, and why one of WWII's most important innovations was designed to deliver comfort, not destruction.
