Picture of the Week 11/2/2009

Omaha Beach, June 2009. Near Vierville-sur-Mer. Near the D-1 draw at Dog Green.

The size of this picture on the homepage does not do it justice. Below is a link to the raw picture. Be advised of long load times but it is worth the effort.

Thank you Yves for the great picture
