"Landing ships putting cargo ashore on Omaha Beach, at low tide during the first days of the operation, June 1944.

Among identifiable ships present are LST-532 (in the centre of the view); USS LST-262 (3rd LST from right); USS LST-310 (2nd LST from right); USS LST-533 (partially visible at far right); and USS LST-524. Note barrage balloons overhead and Army "half-track" convoy forming up on the beach.
The LST-262 was one of 10 Coast Guard-manned LSTs that participated in the invasion of Normandy, France.

(US Coast Guard photo # 26-G-2517)"
