I'm In My 80s Now. When I Was A Child,

I'm in my 80s now. When I was a child, I remember the radio telling us that the government gave saltpeter to our soldiers during WW2. I'd like to know if that was true; also, was it true that bishops gave it to seminarians? Were nuns given it? What is today's "word" for saltpeter and what is it used for?
