UK Daily Mail  "Dramatic images have shone fresh light on what it was like for Allied troops storming the beaches of Normandy on D-Day after being rendered in colour for the first time. 
"They show American troops tending to the wounded on one of the beachheads and British troops digging defensive fortifications before moving ashore.
"Others, taken in the aftermath of the battle, show US Rangers relaxing on a captured beach while others stand among the ruins of a German defensive position at Pointe du Hoc. 
"American military hardware and troops are also seen being brought ashore as the Allies begin to expand their toe-hold in Europe after an intense day of fighting." . . .

. . . "Approximately 10,000 allies were injured or killed, inlcuding 6,603 American, of which 2,499 were fatal.
"Between 4,000 and 9,000 German troops were killed - and it proved the pivotal moment of the war, in the allied forces' favour." . . .
