The History Behind the Design
In 1944, Allied deception planning depicted the 21st Airborne Division as part of a notional order of battle in England. References to proposed Pas de Calais operations were part of that imagined plan, not a record of an actual airborne landing. This piece remembers the ingenuity of the deception campaign without confusing the fictional formation with a fighting unit.
