Interesting article Buck!

The concept of Maskirovka was used very sucessfully by the Soviets during the buildup for the Vistula-Oder offensive in early '45. Christopher Duffy gives a good description of it in "Red Storm on the Reich."

Cool, I wonder when they turn up on the military surplus market, I want to place a T80 in my future garden. Maybe neighborhood kids can use it as a bouncy bounce.

No, no, no... In your garden you should have a surplus Sherman, with the gun pointing at the gate and any door salesmen entering! Cool
