Pretty neat. Kind of like the inflatable jeeps, trucks and tanks before the Normandy invasion.

Can you imagine trying to hide the big Boeing plant?

I just found out that the Army had taken most of a township or boro in Crawford County, Pa. for a ammo factory because of the natural cloud cover from a swamp & its rural setting. To this day there is a Ammo Rd. where people were able to buy old concrete ammo igloos & convert them into homes & summer cabins. At least some good came out of it rather than spending tax money to demolish them.
