D-DAY - THEN AND NOW PICTURES

One photographer armed with a handful of D-Day photographs went out to find the original locations.  Then, using the exact spot used 70 years ago, a new photograph of the same scene was taken.

Pictures below:

Location:  Weymouth, Dorset, England
Then:  June 5, 1944 - US Army Rangers headed for D-Day landing on Omaha Beach
Now:  Vacationers.  Life is good.
