Question
dont believe your eyes
the ghost army had a tough job. they needed to get the axis troops to fire on fake tanks. the tanks were blown up like balloons. but they didnt leave tracks. the ghost army used bulldozers to make tracks. that way, the enemy would think the tanks were real. they would believe the enemy was nearby.
the soldiers had to be careful with the fake tanks. sometimes they leaked air. if that happened, they would droop!
some of the actors in the ghost army dressed up as u.s. generals. they went where enemy spies would see them. ghost army members carried sewing kits. they needed to change their uniform patches. this made it look like many military units were in the area.
dont believe your ears
the ghost army also used sound to confuse the enemy. they recorded armies in action. then, they blasted the recordings. axis troops and locals heard them. they thought huge numbers of allied troops and tanks were on the move.
