EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intensity and scale of the naval artillery support during the D-Day invasion on June 6, 1944. In this image, a converted landing craft fires rockets towards the Normandy coastline, providing crucial firepower to assist the Allied troops as they began their historic assault. The Normandy landings, also known as Operation Neptune and Operation Overlord, were the largest single-day amphibious actions ever undertaken, involving nearly 400,000 military and naval personnel. The operation commenced in two distinct phases: the air assault landing of Allied troops, followed by an amphibious assault by infantry. The world watched in anticipation as the invasion began at 6:30 am, marking the start of the end of the Second World War in Europe. The English Channel, once a formidable barrier, was breached as Allied forces crossed its treacherous waters to reach the shores of Normandy. In this pivotal moment in history, the importance of naval artillery support cannot be overstated. The 2nd Artillery, in particular, played a vital role in softening up the German defenses with their powerful guns before the infantry landed. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the crucial role that naval artillery played in the success of the D-Day invasion. As we reflect on this significant historical event, we are reminded of the immense courage and sacrifice of the Allied forces who braved the unknown to secure a victory that would ultimately change the course of history.
