This Sunday 6th June is the 60th Anniversary of D-Day, when the allied troops left Portsmouth and other British harbours determined to liberate Europe from the Nazi's tyranny. I feel a deep admiration for the photographer who took the above photo : Robert Capa. He must have been scared to death but he was there just as the soldiers were. Just as he had been with the soldiers and risking his life as well when he stood by the Republican Army in the Spanish Civil War. You can see all the photos Capa took in Normandy : here and then click on the black & white photo on the right side of the screen.
