Did you know during WWII the US created a ghost army? It was officially known as the 23rd Headquarters Special Troops. It was activated on January 20, 1944 and created by Ralph Ingersoll and Billy Harris. It was used to mislead the Axis forces about the size and location of the Allied forces. The ghost army said to be maid of artist who used inflatable tanks, cannons, trucks, airplanes, and fake radio transmissions. They were placed so the enemies could see them. Fake airfields and troop bivouacs (military bases) were also created.
