Ghost Army (original) (raw)
Die 23rd Special Troops (auch als „23rd Headquarters, Special Troops“ bezeichnet) waren ein geheimer Militärverband der United States Army, der zur aktiven Täuschung der deutschen Wehrmacht aufgestellt wurde und ab Juni 1944 im Zweiten Weltkrieg in Europa zum Einsatz kam. Nachdem ihre Existenz noch nach dem Krieg jahrzehntelang geheim gehalten wurde, wurden sie erst ab den 2000er Jahren unter dem Namen Ghost Army („Geisterarmee“) einer breiteren Öffentlichkeit bekannt. Der Verband hatte rund 1100 Angehörige und bestand aus vier Abteilungen, die vor allem auf Täuschungsmanöver mit Hilfe falscher Funksprüche, Lautsprecher und Attrappen spezialisiert waren.

(de) The Ghost Army was a United States Army tactical deception unit during World War II officially known as the 23rd Headquarters Special Troops. The 1100-man unit was given a unique mission: to deceive Hitler's forces and mislead them as to the size and location of Allied forces, while giving the actual units elsewhere time to maneuver. Activated on January 20, 1944, the Ghost Army arrived in Europe in May shortly before D-Day and returned to the USA at the end of the war in July 1945 During their tenure, the Ghost Army carried out more than 20 deception campaigns, putting on a "traveling road show" utilizing inflatable tanks, sound trucks, fake radio transmissions, scripts and pretense. Their story was kept a secret for more than 50 years after the war, until it was declassified in 1996. The unit was the subject of a PBS documentary The Ghost Army in 2013. In February 2022, members of the Ghost Army were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal, citing their unique and highly distinguished service.

A quest'unità, composta da 1 100 militari, era stata assegnata l'unica missione di impersonare le altre divisioni dell'esercito statunitense al fine di confondere gli avversari. Attiva in Gran Bretagna prima dello Sbarco in Normandia, e poi in Francia, fino alla fine della guerra, quest'unità mise in atto uno "show ambulante", simulando i movimenti più di 20 unità a ridosso delle linee di fronte utilizzando carri armati gonfiabili, veicoli provvisti di apparecchiature audio, ed effettuando finte trasmissioni radio. La loro missione è stata tenuta segreta fino al 1996, e alcune informazioni rimangono tuttora riservate. (it) A Ghost Army (em português: Exército Fantasma) foi uma unidade de dissimulação tática do Exército dos Estados Unidos durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial imitando operações britânicas anteriores e oficialmente conhecido como 23rd Headquarters Special Troops. A unidade com 1100 homens recebeu uma missão única no Exército dos Estados Unidos: passar-se por outras unidades do exército estadunidense para enganar o inimigo. Desde quando chegaram na França, semanas após o desembarque na Normandia, até o fim da guerra realizaram "apresentações itinerantes" usando tanques infláveis, caminhões de som, transmissões de rádio falsas e dissimulações. Eles encenaram mais de 20 simulações, frequentemente operando próximo das linhas de frente. Suas missões foram mantidas em segredo até 1996 e alguns detalhes ainda são mantidos em sigilo.. A unidade foi tema de um documentário da PBS em 2013 (pt) |
