Operation Fortitude


To get that much tactical benefit with no loss of life and limited resource usage is amazing. It may not be as sexy as the big tank, ship, or air battles but it was a masterpiece.

And bonus benefit, it doesn’t come with the guilt of civilian casualties like so many other aspect of the war.
