'Metz' was a US two-part deception by the 23^rd Headquarters Special Troops in connection with the battle for Metz in eastern France (28 December 1944/9 January 1945).

'Metz I' of 28/31 December 1944 was designed to show that Major General Frank L. Culin’s US 87^th Division was still committed in the Metz area even though it was being redeployed toward the Ardennes for service against 'Wacht am Rhein'.

'Metz II' of 6/9 January 1945 was intended to show that Major General James A. Van Fleet’s US 90^th Division was still in reserve behind the Metz front even though it too was being relocated northward to the Ardennes.
