D-Day: The Secret Battle
By 1944 the Germans knew the Allies were set to invade the French Coast, but where would they land? Operation Fortitude, one of the biggest war-time deceptions ever, was designed to mislead the Germans, convincing them the troops would land at Pas de Calais. This documentary shows how this stunning operation was achieved along with many other secrets of D-Day.
