During World War II, England removed road signs, milestones, and railway station signs as a defensive measure against a potential German invasion.
This action was intended to confuse and disorient enemy troops if they were to land in England. Over 50,000 signs were reportedly removed in a short period. The removed signs were often melted down for use in munitions.
