Learn about the secret missions of the U.S. Army's tactical deception unit during World War II with Rick Beyer, co-author (with Elizabeth Sayles) of The Ghost Army of World War II: How One Top-Secret Unit Deceived The Enemy with Inflatable Tanks, Sound Effects, and Other Audacious Fakery. The unit's little-known, highly imaginative, daring maneuvers helped distract the Germans in France and disguised the true location of the Allied forces.
