The allies dropped large amounts of forged rationing cards over Germany These ranged from forged clothing ration books to many types of food rationing cards. The aim of these documents was to disrupt the internal distribution (economic sabotage) by dropping large amounts of them over German civilians. But in at least one German report, there is a mentioning of forged clothing ration books found in crashed aircraft. It was supposed by the Germans that these documents were to help British aircrew in getting access to civilian clothing.
