　　为了惑敌， 英美军史中有不少根本不存在的幽灵部队，规模最大的是1944年在英格兰东南部的多佛尔虚设的一个由巴顿中将任司令的“美军第1集团军司令部”。
　　二战时美国幽灵部队把希特勒耍的团团转，而他一定想不到，部队的大部份成员都是精心挑选的艺术家。
　　战争靠的不仅仅是实力，还有智力。第二次世界大战期间，盟军就使用各种战争策略来混淆视听，误导或恐吓德国军队，比如降落假的伞兵、伪造军官William Martin的死亡、掩盖一个军用飞机厂等等。最近曝光的是被称为〝幽灵部队〞（Ghost Army）的计策。
　　〝幽灵部队〞被官方称为〝美军第23司令部直属特战团〞，一个拥有1100人的部队。他们的任务就是负责迷惑纳粹。该部队的成员并不是普通的士兵，而是从纽约和费城艺术学院精心挑选出来的艺术家、插画家和音效师。他们利用充气坦克和扬声器等作为〝武器〞对付敌军。
　　他们总共发起了20多次行动，拯救了上万士兵的生命，但是他们的英雄壮举没什么人知道。因为〝幽灵部队〞的存在和行动一直被高度保密，直到1996年有关文件被解密，他们才为世人所知。部队中有人负责创建虚假的交通网路，有的打扮成士兵，出没在当地的咖啡馆，向间谍散播一些假故事，还有的扮演成军官，开着吉普车从一个小镇至另一个小镇。有的时候，部队还会开着几辆卡车营造出步兵被运送的错觉。通常情况下，他们可以制造出2万到4万人的推进场景。为了创造出一个庞大的军队，部队会使用充气的坦克、卡车、大炮和飞机，并通过巨型扬声器播放预先录制好的装甲和步兵的声音，而这声音在15英里（约24公里）开外的地方都能听到。
　　他们最壮观的行动之一是在战争即将结束的时候。1945年3月，当第九军准备横渡莱茵河进入德国时，〝幽灵部队〞在不同的地方试图吸引德军部队的注意。他们设立了超过600个充气坦克和大炮，晚上播放坦克前进的声音，而白天则使用大型工程建造的声音。他们成功骗过了德国军队，让真正的部队在没什么威胁的情况下成功登陆德国。
　　战争结束后，部队里的许多人都继续他们的艺术生涯，其中有的还出了名，比如著名时装设计师Bill Blass、画家Ellsworth Kelly和摄影师Art Kane。现在1100名成员依然健在的只剩下不到50人。
