(From left to right) World War II veterans, Gazo Nemeth and Harold Flinn, sign autographs with "The Ghost Army" film Director/Producer Rick Beyer after a screening of the film at the Imax theater in Branson, MO on November 6, 2014. The "classified" Ghost Army, consisting of over 1,100 troops selected for their specific talents ... was tasked with impersonating other Army units using various tools (like the inflatable tank below) to deceive the enemy during World War II. "The Ghost Army" is a must see for all Americans including educators showing it to their students when discussing World War II. Note: The story of this secret units wasn’t declassified until more than 40 years after the war. (Photos and combined image by USA Patriotism!) |
