Dieppe Beach after the raid of 19 August 1942. German photographers had a field day photographing the litter and wreckage; these photos (in black and white) quickly became the subject of propaganda leaflets dropped over England. This colour shot gives a good view of the insignia of the Calgary Regiment. Note the rusty colour of the tank tracks and exhaust extensions (these enabled the tank to wade into the beach through deep water).
