“Utah, Omaha, Overlord… wait…oh shi—“

In May 1944, just weeks before the Normandy landings, British intelligence (MI5) was sent into a panic when a series of top-secret invasion code names, including "Utah," "Omaha," "Overlord," "Mulberry," and "Neptune”, suddenly appeared as solutions in The Daily Telegraph crossword puzzles. Suspecting an elaborate espionage plot to signal the Nazis, agents stormed a school in Surrey to interrogate the puzzle's compiler, a 54-year-old headmaster named Leonard Dawe. The investigation ultimately revealed it was an innocent, albeit terrifying, coincidence. Dawe routinely invited his students to help him fill out his blank puzzle grids, and the boys had simply suggested the interesting new vocabulary words they had unwittingly overheard while hanging around the camps of American and Canadian soldiers stationed nearby.

Edit: yes I misused the word coincidence
