OMAHA BEACH, NORMANDY, FRANCE - 06 June 1944 - Two US Navy sailors (foreground) navigate near Omaha Beach during the early stages of the Invasion of Normandy on D-Day. In the background, US (or possibly Canadian or British) troops disgorge onto Omaha Beach from the LCIs USS 553 and the USS 410. Omaha Beach was difficult for the Allied forces to take and casualties were very high, though by the end of D-Day the troops had secured several footholds on the beach - Photo: Geopix/US Navy
