Описание: The Ghost Army: How Fake Tanks Helped Win WWII | Secret U.S. Deception Unit


During World War II, the United States Army created one of its most unusual units — the Ghost Army.
Officially known as the 23rd Headquarters Special Troops, this secret unit used inflatable tanks, fake radio traffic, and sound effects to mislead German forces about Allied troop movements.
Formed in 1944, the Ghost Army carried out more than 20 deception missions across France, Belgium, and Germany, helping protect real Allied operations and saving thousands of lives.
Their work remained classified for decades and was only revealed to the public in the 1990s.
This video explores the true, documented history of the Ghost Army — one of World War II’s most fascinating and lesser-known operations.
