Summary
| Description |
English: This is an aerial photograph that was taken presumably by an RAF reconnaissance plane on D-Day 6 June 1944. It is a birds-eye view of the Vierville draw that which the men of A Company and B Company assaulted that day. On the bottom can be seen some of the destroyed buildings, probably because they were shelled on D-Day, which would have faced A Company as they came in. The shingle/barrier can be seen just to the left of it
