D-Day - US troops waiting for the moment of attack
A tension-filled photograph depicting American troops and medical personnel awaiting the moment of attack during the Normandy landings. The horror of the beaches would only be moments away.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the stillness before the storm, American troops and medical personnel await the moment of attack during the historic Normandy landings on June 6, 1944. The tension in the air is palpable as the largest single-day amphibious actions in world war history, involving nearly 400,000 military and naval personnel, were about to unfold. The Normandy landings, also known as Operation Neptune and Operation Overlord, began at 6:30am with an air assault landing of allied troops, followed by an amphibious assault by infantry. The soldiers, dressed in camouflage uniforms and donning helmets, exude a sense of nervousness and anticipation as they prepare to face the unknown horrors of the beaches. The medical personnel, with their white coats and bandages, stand ready to tend to the wounded, a grim reminder of the inevitable casualties of war. The world watched with bated breath as the invasion of Normandy marked a turning point in the Second World War, ultimately leading to the defeat of Nazi Germany.
