How did the allies keep D-day a secret from the Germans?

The British counter-intelligence service had done a remarkable job of catching every single German spy in England. Many of these were "turned", forced to send disinformation to the Germans to mislead them.

The Allies had complete control of the air, preventing even the slightest air reconnaissance by German aircraft over the UK.

The Allies mounted a disinformation campaign called "Operation Fortitude" to mislead the Germans, and to reinforce the idea the Germans already had that the Allied landings would come at the narrowest part of the English Channel, in the Pas-de-Calais of France. As part of this they created a fictitious "First US Army Group", and let it leak out that General George Patton was in command. The Germans respected Patton as the most capable American battlefield commander they had encountered, and could not believe that he might be sidelined because he had slapped a couple of soldiers, though this was, in fact, the case. FUSAG looked to the Germans like the assault force. Fake radio traffic between non-existent units was broadcast by radio for the Germans to hear. Inflatable blow-up rubber "tanks" were staked out in fields and a single real tank driven all around to create masses of tank tracks, just in case the Germans managed to get an observation plane over.
