EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of the Liberation of Europe as commandos wade ashore from their landing craft, marking the beginning of the invasion of Normandy on D-Day, 1944. The image, titled "Liberation of Europe: Commandos Pour Into Beachheads," is a poignant reminder of the bravery and determination of the Allied forces as they fought their way inland. The commandos, armed and prepared for battle, are seen carrying various equipment, including a small motorcycle, which would prove invaluable in their advance. The photograph, issued by the British War Office in 1944, is one of 37 official images documenting the preparations for and liberation of North West Europe during World War II. The image is mounted on card with the original associated typescript captions and is protected by Crown Copyright.
