“Never mind, we can do without them. But if we get out of here, you must send a message to Gibbs, the Hall Porter at Claridge’s in London, telling him on no account to allow the servants in the hotel to touch some dangerous medicines in my bathroom.” – OSS Director William J. Donovan [1], June 7, 1944, on Utah Beach, upon realizing that he left his cyanide pills behind, before the D-Day invasion
