Hallo

I´m looking for some snaps and pictures with building, nature and landscape of battle fields at Normandy 1944. I´m preparing the diorama with 12.SSPzDiv from this location. I prefer original photos, but the today´s villages are looking similar (I think).

Thanks. Jiri

Most of the black and white pictures that will appear when you click on a battle site above (green dots), or the text links below, were photographed by Major J.C. Hatlem in the late 40’s.
They were referenced by General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Carlton Joyce when they authored their books: "Crusade in Europe" and "Stand Where They Fought" respectively. Notations on some of the photos were made by General Eisenhower.
For additional photo/battle details, read the chapter (in brackets) in "Stand Where They Fought."
