On June 6, 1944, photographer Robert Capa captured this image of American troops landing at Omaha Beach for the invasion of Normandy, France, known as D-Day. Capa was one of the few war correspondents allowed to join U.S. troops landing on Normandy's shores for the D-Day operations.
Dodging bullets and hiding behind pieces of steel, Capa photographed for hours in waist-deep water with several Contax cameras ?. His hands trembled, and he ruined many rolls of film as he tried to change film amid the dead and wounded of the battle. Capa did make his way to the shore, but soon after found himself jumping aboard a barge to rest and dry off, not realizing the boat was returning to its main ship. Capa didn't get back to shore again until the fighting had ended.
Capa's D-Day photos were sent directly to the offices of "LIFE" in London for processing. Hurrying to develop the rolls, a technician turned up the heat in the dryers, ruining many of the 72 images taken. Only 11 survived.
