Title: Normandy Invasion, June 1944
Description: Scene near the Omaha Beach shoreline on 11 June 1944, with a pile of steel obstructions at left. These appear to have been removed from their service locations and gathered into one place for the convenience of the invading forces. Note the Gooseberry breakwater of sunken ships in the distance, and DUKW amphibious truck approaching the beach in right center. Official U.S. Navy Photograph, now in the collections of the National Archives.
