Shelton recorded an infantry unit advancing from Utah Beach. The date was listed as 9 June and the unit as the 8th Infantry of the 4th Division. Since Shelton recorded photographs at a field hospital on 9 June, the date may be inaccurate. In addition, the circular shoulder patch design looks more like that of the 9th Division. (NARA)
Franklin photographed an artillery shell explosion on the beach in an image dated 11 June but possibly on D-Day. (NARA)
A group from the 2nd Ranger Battalion including a .30 calibre machine gun on D-Day or early in the Normandy invasion. The scene has been attributed to Pointe du Hoc but the 2nd Battalion also landed at Omaha Beach. The image is one of the few to show troops in combat conditions. (NARA)
