The phrase refers to the infamous betrayal by American General Benedict Arnold during the Revolutionary War. Arnold's plan to surrender West Point to the British was thwarted when a letter detailing his intentions was intercepted, revealing his treasonous plot. The "bit of cursive" signifies the handwritten correspondence that ultimately sealed his fate, leading to his exposure and the failure of his scheme. This act of betrayal made Arnold a notorious figure in American history.

A penetrating chest wound should be sealed to prevent air from entering the pleural space, which can lead to a collapsed lung (pneumothorax) and compromise respiratory function. Sealing the wound helps maintain negative pressure in the thoracic cavity, allowing the lungs to expand properly during breathing. Additionally, it reduces the risk of contamination and infection, thereby improving the chances of recovery. Promptly sealing the wound can be a critical intervention in emergency situations.

During WW1, the US Army issued the "Emergency Ration," aka the "Armour" or "Tobacco Tin" ration. It consisted of a sealed oval tin can with 3 cakes of mixed powdered beef-ground wheat, and three hard cakes of chocolate mixed with powdered sugar. The British (and German) armies issued the "Iron Ration" (Eiserne Portion). This consisted of preserved meat (such as canned corned beef) and hard crackers, plus some salt and perhaps some tea or coffee. The Emergency Ration/Iron Ration/Eiserne Portion could only be consumed by the order of the officer in charge, otherwise the soldier could be charged and punished. During WW2, the US Army utilized the D-Ration, a hard chocolate bar fortified with oat flour and vitamins; three 4-oz bars constituted one days emergency ration, providing 1800 calories. The WW2 British Army issued the Emergency Ration Mk I, a flat tin about the size and shape of an Altoids tin, sealed with waterproof tape and containing: a 1.25 oz chocolate-nut cake (sort of like a dense brownie), sugar cubes, and enough powdered tea for a 12-oz mug. The Canadian Army had an Emergency Ration tin about the size and shape of a SPAM can, containing 12 milk chocolate tablets, 12 hard crackers, and 2 small bars of chocolate. The Germans used the same Eiserne Portion as during WW1. As in WW2, the British & Canadian Emergency Rations and the German Eiserne Portion could only be eaten on the order of an officer.
