Description: LSTs and other vessels unloading at low tide at Normandy, soon after the June 1944 invasion. USS LST-55 is in the center, behind the closest barrage balloon. USS LST-61 is at right. Though dated 6 June 1944, this photograph was actually taken at least a day later. Note beach obstacles collected on the shoreline in the right center, shipping offshore, and trucks and other vehicles in the foreground. Photograph from the Army Signal Corps Collection in the U.S. National Archives.
