Mulberry Harbour - Normandy

Part of a Mulberry Harbour at Normandy
Date and exact location unknown

In 1942, when the Allies began to plan their return to mainland Europe, they accepted that they could not rely on capturing a harbour in working order. During the planning for Operation Overlord, it was decided that two artificial harbours would be constructed off the Normandy beach-head, one in the British sector at Arromanches and the other in the American sector at St Laurent.

It is possible that this is a picture of the Mulberry in the American sector
