There's a company in Nixon, New Jersey. It's called Nixon Nitration Works.
Sounds picturesque.
Yeah, well, oddly enough, I know the owners. Probably gonna expect me to make something of myself. I thought maybe I'd drag you with me.

Talk about being inseparable.
Both Nixon (Band of Brothers ep 10) and Bucky (Masters of the Air ep 7) asked Winters and Buck to come with them after the war. It's a bond that will never be broken. A life-time partner.

Winnix moments that make me feral part 1/?
This scene kills me every time because Dick just introduced Harry to Nix. "Lieutenant Lewis Nixon? Lieutenant Harry Welsh." Dick already knows Harry and yet, and yet Nix immediately upon meeting him needs him to know that he knows Dick, better than you, thank you very much, and he can tell you all about him. And then, Dick doesn't shrug it off like, "we know each other already, Lew," oh no, he has to point out that he knows all about Nixon as well, in front of his new friend. And look at Lew's face!! He's almost abashed that Dick is teasing him. Boys, stop, I can't.
Don't even get me started on the beginning of this scene with Harry asking, "Am I interrupting something?" when they're standing six clear feet apart.

Actors talking about their understandings of Winters/Nixon relationship:
It's a great relationship. There isn't a lot of romance in Band of Brothers. We don't see a lot of ladies. But that is a romance of the sort. -- Damian Lewis, the Ross Owen Show (2011)
I really enjoy the scene where Damian and I are having this bromance at the end, and there's this awkwardness, like, are we going to see each other again? It's almost like inviting the girl to the prom, asking him to come work with my factory, you know what I mean. And there's something about the idea of these guys being 1940s guys who weren't really allowed to talk about their feelings or admit that they like each other at all. They weren't allowed to. --Ron Livingston, the Ross Owen Show (2017)
I think there was a lot of sibling, friend, rivalry. That's part of any deep and abiding love. --Ron Livingston, HBO Band of Brothers podcast (2022)
Nix is such beautifully played by Ron. This slightly cavalier, Ivy League, upper-class, roguish character, seems to have got through the war, somehow, with his humor intact. And as long as there's a bottle not too far away you figure he can get through the day. And Dick is completely straight next to him. Opposites attracted. -- Damian Lewis, HBO Band of Brothers podcast (2022)

A quick little sketch I made of Nix after watching Ron’s Livingstons video diary about the bootcamp. Also if you haven’t watched it yet it’s hilariously go watch it right now! That’s an order!
It’s on YouTube btw ;)
