EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene at Mulberry Harbour off Arromanches, Normandy, France, during the aftermath of the Allied D-Day Invasion in June 1944. The image, taken in the 1940s, showcases the temporary and portable harbour that was crucial to the success of the largest seaborne invasion in history. Mulberry Harbour was a groundbreaking engineering feat, consisting of two artificial breakwaters, codenamed Mulberry A and B, which were constructed from concrete caissons and assembled offshore. The harbours provided a sheltered anchorage for supply ships to unload essential provisions and reinforcements for the advancing Allied forces. In this photograph, we see a serene yet powerful scene, with the remains of Mulberry Harbour stretching out into the English Channel. The wooden pontoons and ships dot the water, while the balloon barrage floats in the background, providing protection against enemy air attacks. The image conveys a sense of both the immense logistical effort and the fragile nature of the operation, as the Allies worked to establish a foothold in Europe and turn the tide of the war. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of those who played a role in the D-Day invasion, and the vital role that Mulberry Harbour played in the success of the Allied forces. It is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the engineers, sailors, and soldiers who worked tirelessly to bring supplies and reinforcements to the battlefield, and to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
