EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of embarkation for US assault troops as they prepare to set sail for the historic D-Day invasion of France on June 6, 1944. The largest single-day amphibious operation in history, D-Day was conducted in two distinct phases: the initial air assault landing of Allied troops, followed by the amphibious assault by infantry. With close to 400,000 military and naval personnel involved, the Normandy landings marked a turning point in World War II. In this image, soldiers can be seen boarding their vehicles and making their way onto the hull of a naval craft, as the doors of the ship are closed behind them. The warships and landing craft, part of the vast Neptune convoy, are poised to set sail from the English Channel, carrying the forces that would change the course of the war. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and determination of the Allied forces during one of the most significant moments in world history.
