I'd like to share a little bit about Army 1st Sergeant Nick Ramen - a man whose spirit of innovation continues to provide simple, nourishing delight to billions of people.
Army 1st Sergeant Nick Ramen - a man of action. There isn’t any sweet nougaty center here – tough as nails all the way to the core. He was born in 1970 and has become increasingly well known around the world. Women everywhere fawned over him, men all envied his grit, College kids everywhere look to him when things are tight. His wife Demae was a real beauty; born in Hong Kong in 1969, her maiden name was Itcho. She came from a huge family and Nick fit right in. The NCOs that fearlessly followed him into battle respectfully referred to him as ‘Top’ – the younger enlisted soldiers loved having him around, but they wouldn’t dare call him ‘Top’ – if you didn’t have chevrons, it was always safer to call him ‘First Sergeant’ calling him Top was a sure fire way to find your self in hot water.
Top was the youngest American to ever earn a Black Belt in the Korean Martial art of Shin Ramyun; earning the honor on 1 October 1986, just a few months after he turned 16. A lethal and dynamic art, it was said, "Shin Ramyun can make a man cry." In China, fans of Shin Ramyun would paraphrase an old Mao Zedong quote to describe the effects of Shin Ramyun – “He who cannot handle spice is not a true man”
(that’s real shit – don’t believe me? Google up “He who cannot handle spice is not a true man” and see if you don’t learn something about Shin Ramyun)
Top continued to dominate competitive martial arts throughout high school and competed against Japanese crowd favorite Sapporo Ichiban and Korean Champ, Budae Jjigae. Even heavy weights like Smith & Jones were no match for 1SG Ramen once you got him boiling. By the time he ended his tour as a green Beret in Okinawa in 2011, he had risen to the rank of 5th Degree Black Belt. His peers would often say that sparring with him was like getting run over by a Nissin truck.
1SG Nick Ramen - a total package and not a man that you should get aggressive with. Nobody knows this better than a Bangladeshi named Maggi after the beating he took when he once challenged Nick to a fight in front of a large group of Soldiers...
“Are you Chicken, Top Ramen”
