Click here for one of the best explanations of Operation Fortitude I have
read to date. The reason for Phantom Divisions was to make
the Germans think there were many more divisions ready for combat in
Britain. These patches were worn by soldiers throughout Southern England as
a ruse to make the German agents (spies) think there was a larger buildup of
American forces than was real. This was dubbed Operation Fortitude and was
commanded (less than enthusiastically) by General George Patton. The following Divisions were approved by the
War Department to further reinforce the ruse.
