Jeep being towed ashore in Normandy Invasion, June 1944
A U.S. Army Jeep 4x4 (nicknamed "Dam Yankee") is towed ashore on a Normandy beach, 12 June 1944.
Note the amphibious operation breathing tube leading to the engine compartment, and the U.S. flag mounted on the windshield.
Two of the men with this vehicle appear to be African-Americans.
Wartime censors have deleted markings on the Jeep vehicle's front bumper, and an object in the right distance.
