Ghost Army (23rd & 3133rd) Roster:

This searchable database of soldiers who served in the Ghost Army has been carefully constructed from a variety of wartime rosters, supplemented with years of painstaking research. It is a work in progress. The goal is to appropriately remember every soldier who served in the Ghost Army. The database includes those who served in the 23rd Headquarters Special Troops, which operated in northern Europe; the 3133rd Signal Service Company, which operated independently in Italy; and selected soldiers from the Army Experimental Station and the 12th US Army Group Special Plans Branch, both of which were deeply involved in the deception effort. There are full bios for 477 of the soldiers, and work continues to create more. Please note that you can also use the search function (magnifying glass) in the upper right to search the bios and the rest of the website.

For questions, or to provide information on a Ghost Army soldier, please reach out to us via the "Contact Us" tab.
