Photo showing early bandoleer and grenage bag in use

[Jean-Loup]

It reminds me of those few photos we have of Omaha beach on the morning of 6 june. I heard that the guy who took those photos had actualy taken over one hundred shots (you can imagine the historical value of them) and the person who developped them was in such a rush that he destroyed all but 6 or seven of the photos, the ones we now see all over the place...

Robert Capa, aye, what a shame most of the Omaha Beach photos were destroyed at the lab:

You know, I dont ever recall seeing a picture of a WW II German soldier with a fixed bayonet ever, except this one. How about you guys?
