I was amazed at this deception as well. I love that the Allies were able to pull it off. I think that says a lot about what they had already learned throughout the war. They still had a lot to learn but this deception is definately worthy of commendation.
I also was amazed and thought it was incredible that they were able to pull this off. Probably the biggest deciet ever.
I think it is also important to credit the force in Italy for drawing some attention. Most people forget that Rome fell jsut a few days later; along with the deception, this made Overlord a success.
