EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of the D-Day invasion, also known as the Normandy landings, on June 6, 1944. The image shows American troops wading ashore through the rough waters of the English Channel, marking the beginning of the largest single-day amphibious military operation in history. The assault was carried out in two distinct phases: the initial airborne assault, followed by the main amphibious landing of infantry. With close to 400,000 military and naval personnel involved, D-Day was a turning point in World War II. This historic event signaled the start of the liberation of Western Europe from Nazi control and marked a significant milestone in the Allied forces' victory in the war. The operation, codenamed Neptune and Overlord, took place on five beaches along the Normandy coast in France. The courage and determination of the soldiers, evident in this photograph, played a crucial role in the success of this pivotal moment in world history.
