[Image] The Allied Invasion of Europe

[Zips]

I always enjoy these "big picture" posts that news sites put up. The Atlantic has been doing a 20 part series on World War II and their most recent one, part 16, just went up. It focuses on the Allied Invasion.

Here's the index for the full thing, parts 17-20 are still to come: http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/ww2.html

Part 14, The Eastern Front, might be more to some of your liking. For example...

Stalingrad in October of 1942, Soviet soldiers fighting in the ruins of the factory "Red October". (Deutsches Bundesarchiv/German Federal Archive)

In January of 1943, a Soviet T-34 tank roars through the Square of Fallen Fighters in Stalingrad. (Georgy Zelma/Waralbum.ru)​

Been following this series on the Atlantic, very good. Thanks for reminding me. The picture in the Eastern Front of the "jewish operation" is the strongest one - just terrible, a mother and her child and a whole family just before being massacred
