It's amazing the FUSAG deception worked so completely well. On the other hand, from the stories I've read the British were exceptionally good at intercepting and even turning German agents sent to G.B.

It's ironic that Ike is faithfully following Clauswitz's advice to concentrate the attack at one point and it's the Germans who think he won't.

I suspect Hitler hasn't gotten his mind wrapped around the fact that if at the time when Wotan was strong on Germany's side invading England across 19 miles of water from Calais was not feasible, certainly the Anglo-American main force could not cross 100 miles of water from Portsmouth to Normandy.
