In military strategy, strategic deception can be employed to achieve tactical objectives, such as when a village in World War II agreed to surrender to the Allies only if they could organize a celebratory festival while simultaneously giving aerial reconnaissance the false impression of fierce ground fighting, thereby protecting the local population while appearing to resist.

WHAT DID YOU DO IN THE WAR, DADDY? (1966) | The Soldiers Do Damage Control | Amazon MGMAdded:
Stop it, hide.
HEY, CUT.
ATTENTION.
GOOD MORNING, CHRISTIAN. AT EASE.
Good lord, these men look like they've been through hell. Yes, sir, that about sums it up.
Cattle, sir, pure hell. What's the situation? Fluid? Uh sir, I don't like the composition. Could I have you over there with >> Later, lumpy.
Casualties?
Frightful, sir.
Damn shame.
>> Yes, sir.
What about I'll give your men at ease, Lieutenant.
At ease, men.
At ease, please.
Look, he said at ease. Can't you men fathom a simple order?
Well, sir, the heat to let up even for an instant dulls their keen fighting edge.
No pictures, please. No pictures. What's your name?
Awful, an awful load. Let's have that again, soldier. You're mumbling.
What is he? Well, well, sir, see, incessant gunfire, I'm afraid they don't hear too well.
ALL RIGHT, FALL IN.
MY GOD, IT'S CASH.
>> YOU MAY BE RIGHT.
Should you be moving him like that? I mean, what if he's broken a stubborn fool out of a deathbed to lead another attack.
>> Yes, they're like that. They're like that. These academy boys are like that.
Stuck up. Know what I mean? YEAH. COME ON.
RIGHT IN HERE, SIR.
YOU GUYS ARE MARVELOUS.
WENT THROUGH A lot of hell. Here.
Move in closer. Move in closer. You, pull in. I want to get a picture of this, huh? The heroes of Valerno.
Gina.
She's gone, sir.
She's far gone. Smells like a distillery in here.
Yes, sir. We had to improvise last night.
We ran out of morphine.
Oh, good morning.
Buongiorno. Gina.
Oh, Gina.
Who the hell is that? Oh, well. I am the daughter >> of the local surgeon, sir. Come in. A partisan.
Lost four brothers fighting the Nazis.
THE NURSE. NURSE?
OH, LINO.
YES, SIR.
OH, THIS ITALIAN NURSE IS NERVOUS.
CHUCHU, YES, her little chuchu, sir.
That's an idiomatic Italian colloquialism meaning her poor wounded war hero. Well, this has gone far enough. Yes, sir. Right.
Order an air strike. An air strike? At once. We can't give you artillery, men, or tanks, but we can certainly give you air support, Lieutenant. We'll level THIS BLOODY TOWN.
UH-OH.
LOOKS LIKE THEY'VE GOT YOU, MAJOR.
ME? WHAT do you mean, me? Well, you're obviously the ranking officer.
They probably overheard your order for an air strike and decided to take you prisoner. Capiche?
Listen, ISN'T THERE SOMETHING >> SILENZIO!
OH, YOU BETTER WATCH IT, MAJOR. HE LOOKS LIKE A MEAN ONE TO ME.
AVANTI! DOWN! DOWN!
PRESTO!
JUST TAKE IT EASY NOW, MAJOR. THEY'LL probably hold you prisoner in town.
>> HEY YOU LET'S GO YOU. DON'T WORRY ABOUT A THING, MAJOR. We'll try to take care of it. Hey you, shut up with YOUR MOTHER, HUH?
OUTSIDE.
LET'S GO.
SERGEANT, DON'T DO ANYTHING FOOLISH. OH.
Hey you, get into the jeep.
PRESTO.
NO, RUMPY, FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE, NOT NOW.
BRING THAT NEGATIVE.
LET'S GO.
