Let the cat'n'mouse games continue. In previous centuries road signs
were moved around and fake maps made to confuse the enemy, I doubt that
has happened in a while. But the stakes are always getting higher, no
one died as a direct result of a sign movement (the guys with guns
lying in ambush on the other hand...)


Including the last one...

In the '80s I had a friend that was assigned to a recon unit of a USA Mech
Inf. batallion in Germany. According to him his squads primary duty if the
ballon went up what to destroy every highway, road and other such marker in
what I thought was a fairly large area of Germany.
