SHE FELT THE NAZIS' WRATH
"SHE FELT THE NAZIS' WRATH: A U.S. Coast Guard infantry landing craft still flies its flag, though knocked out of the invasion, ripped and wounded on the beaches of France. Moving in for a landing, the LCI ran afoul of an underwater obstruction, which tore a gaping hole in her bow. Then as its cargo of troops piled ashore, Nazi shells battered her out of further action."; no date; Photo No. 2395; photographer unknown.
