Before and After D-Day.

I really enjoyed going through these rare color photos from Life magazine. The masterfully restored images from before and after D-Day show a perspective on what things looked like before and after that day.
After watching Band of Brothers years ago and researching my grandfather's time spent as a soldier in WWII, I have a fascination with history at that time. My grandfather fought at the Battle of the Bulge. I remember a few years ago sitting around our kitchen table as he told us (his grandchildren) stories of the war. The greatest generation? I won't argue that. I am grateful for our troops, and will always thank them for their service.
The color really breathes life into these images. Today is the 68th anniversary of D-Day.
