Parking lot just being finished where a the Christian Church use to stand. The church was torn down after the congregation built a new church elsewhere.
There is no text. But it shows a beachhead landing during World War II. Higgins boats on the far right with soldiers debarking, center soldiers moving toward the beach, and assisting each other, background the beach. Above an propeller driven aircraft strafing the beach in support. Weapons in the hands of the soldiers resemble BAR's and M-1 Garands.
And high above the American Eagle and Flag looking of the entire operation.
