EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the raw power and determination of the US 2nd Armored Division, also known as 'Hell on Wheels,' during their pivotal role in the D-Day landings on Omaha Beach in June 1944. The Division, the first American unit to see combat in Normandy, landed on the shores of France on June 9th and went into action just two days later. The fierce fighting for the strategic town of Carentan earned them their ominous nickname. The Division's relentless advance continued throughout the war, making them the first American Division to enter Berlin. This historic moment is commemorated in this image, which shows the Division's tanks and troops advancing through the mud and debris of the battlefield. The grit and determination etched on the faces of the soldiers is a testament to their unwavering commitment to the cause. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men of the US 2nd Armored Division during World War II. The plaque on the wall of the Belhambra Club on Omaha Beach pays tribute to their heroism and legacy.
