    Anyone heard of this before?

    Operation Cornflakes was a World War II Office of Strategic Services PSYOP mission in 1944 and 1945 which involved tricking the German postal service Deutsche Reichspost into inadvertently delivering anti-Nazi propaganda to German citizens through mail.

    The birth of “Junk Mail” — or would that be “Junkers Mail”?Pretty cool idea, actually - right up there with Hitler trying to flood the market with counterfeit English Pounds.
