1944 Sweeping vintage photograph of soldiers ready for action aboard their LCT and heading toward the beaches of Normandy as part of the D-Day invasion. The photograph captures some soldiers putting on a brave face while others appeared aware of the carnage that awaited them. It is incredible to think that some of these men would be dead just moments after this photograph was taken! Issued by the United States Navy and with both text and a paper caption on the back, this is a high grade image and it is the only example we have ever seen in the industry!
