That shot on the invasion barge in post #12519 looks like Robert Capa's, maybe? He took those infamous shots on which the first 20 minutes' action sequence was based in Saving Private Ryan. In London at LIFE magazine's office, an overeager developer turned up the heat so high in the developing room it destroyed all but 11 images of 72 that Capa took from the beach head whilst landing with the troops on D-Day.
