The british took dead corpses of homeless people in London, and dressed them up as fake paratroopers with intel and dropped them out over italy, france, and africa. This fake intel unironically worked and was sent to hitler and was used to fake where the d-day landing was.
Omaha beach was supposed to go a lot smoother, however the day of they fed the soldiers a full breakfast which lead to sea sickness, it was windy and cloudy which meant the paratroopers that were supposed to clear the back end hours before landed miles away or never got there. The beach was supposed to be bombed hours in advance to allow tanks, but cloudy weather lead to poor visibility and was called off. Beaches like Utah, Juno, and Gold went with way less casualties as things that were supposed to happen actually did.
The reason Russia and China got nukes within 5 years after WW2 is because spies worked on the manhattan project and the government knew, but let them stay as they were invaluable as scientists and we needed the nukes before hitler.
Hitler was nowhere NEAR nukes at all, in fact his top scientists brought them up and he thought they were a fad or impossible and dismissed them. They were technologically 10-20 years away from making nukes.
the british used inflatable vehicles and fake bases to fool german intelligence into base maps, in reality it was people in inflatable tanks and shit driving them around to look like they were active.
