Talk:List of British deception formations in World War II

What operation in northern Germany?
Can we clarify what operation the article is talking about that was to be undertaken near Kiel but cancelled?--EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 16:54, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Incomplete sentence
There seems to be some crucial words missing from this sentence about the 2nd Airborne Division: In the aftermath of Fortitude South, the notional 2nd Airborne Division, the notional United States 9th and 21st Airborne Divisions and the real United States 17th Airborne Divisions to depict an airborne threat to the Kiel-Bremen area in support of Operation Market Garden. Or at least I can't figure out what it's supposed to mean. Fornadan (t) 12:53, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

7th Division?
List of British Divisions in World War II mentions a 7th Division (Cyprus), which isn't listed here. Should it be, or is this an error? Andrew Gray (talk) 21:14, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Comment
So is there any information about the effectiveness of these deceptive formations? Seeing how after the war the Allies had unlimited access to German military records, this information ought to be available. If it has been discussed in the secondary literature -- or there are insightful anecdotes in the published primary sources -- incorporating that material would make this article more useful. -- llywrch (talk) 18:44, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I noted that you commented while I was still in the process of overhauling the article into a list. I have added a background section that discusses, in part, what you were after. Largely the first draft at the moment, while I look at some other things. But hopefully, it goes towards addressing your concern.EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 01:53, 19 October 2021 (UTC)
