That Hitler’s men raided Leo Sternbach’s laboratory in Krakow, Poland, trashed it, and stole some active drug. is not by itself of great importance. Hitler, reading that it had anti-fear properties, used it in his troops attacking Poland, calling it the drug of the Valiant, setting off a string of chases by MI5, Cdn. Army Intell., and even the FBI (unofficially), and, as it got lost by the Nazis, Valium got its name and early fame.
