Ghosts of the ETO

American Tactical Deception Units in the European Theater, 1944–1945

By: Jonathan Gawne

“An excellent, balanced history of the 23rd Special Troops . . . may be one of the most important books to come out of World War II.” —Engineer Magazine No history of the war in Europe has ever taken into account the actions of the men of the US 23rd Special Troops. These men took part in over twenty-two deception operations against the German army. Some of these operations had tremendous impact upon how the battles in Europe were fought. The men who participated in these actions were sworn to secrecy for fifty years and are only now willing to talk about their role. The 23rd was composed of four main units. A signal deception unit to broadcast fake radio signals, an engineer camouflage unit to set up rubber dummies of tanks and trucks, a combat engineer unit to construct emplacements and provide local security, and a sonic deception company. The sonic unit was developed to fool German listening posts by playing audio recordings of various sounds, such as tanks moving up or bridges being built. The 23rd was the only tactical deception unit of the American Army in World War II combining all aspects of deception. This book also covers the birthplace of sonic deception, the Army Experimental Station at Pine Camp, and the 23rd’s smaller sister unit, the 3133rd Sonic Deception company that saw action for fourteen days in Italy. “Highly recommended reading as being a simply fascinating military history of a hidden aspect of World War II that would have a profound and lasting influence on military strategy and tactics.” —Midwest Book Review

Language and the Brain

A Slim Guide to Neurolinguistics

By: Jonathan R. Brennan

This book introduces readers to the state-of-the-art neuroscientific research that is revolutionizing our understanding of language. Interest in the brain bases of language goes back to the birth of the modern neurosciences in the late nineteenth century. Today, tools such as fMRI and EEG allow us to study brain activity non-invasively as people perform complex cognitive tasks like talking or reading. In this book, Jonathan Brennan shows how brain signals are connected with the intricate cognitive structures that underlie human language. Each chapter focuses on specific insights including the neural codes for speech perception, meaning, and sentence structure. The book also explores larger themes such as how to connect abstract notions like "knowing a language" to concrete signals that are measured in a laboratory, and how to reconcile apparently conflicting pieces of data that arise from different experiments. Written in an accessible, conversational style, and featuring a glossary of key terms, this slim guide will appeal to a wide range of readers interested in how the human brain allows us to use language.

The Americans in Brittany, 1944

The Battle for Brest

By: Jonathan Gawne

Considered by many of the participants to have been the most intense combat in Europe, the Americans of the 2nd, 8th and 29th Infantry Divisions faced elite German paratroopers ... fight for the Brittany ports. The German defenders were under command of the renowned paratroop General Ramcke, who was ordered by Hitler to hold to the last man? The Brittany campaign became a textbook example of the value of armored units exploiting a breakthrough. For a few days in the summer of 1944, the world?s attention was on the American breakout into Brittany, then the focus shifted to the encirclement of the German Army in the Falaise pocket and the fighting in Brittany was forgotten? Official reports, interwoven with the memories of veterans, bring this important struggle to life. Long thought of as a sideshow, Gawne makes a case for a renewed study of the action, which may have had a far-reaching impact on the Allied supply situation. Heavily illustrated with period photos, uniform reconstructions, maps, and tables of organization, this book provides a long sought overview of the American involvement in this ... fight"--Page 4 of cover.
