The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Standing in the Footprint of History

June 2014.

To mark the 70th anniversary of D-Day, Getty Images photographer Peter Macdiarmid went through archival images of identifiable landmarks of the campaign then "literally stood on the footprints of history," taking present-day images of the same ground walked on by Allied forces.
