You just have to see these photos at the attached web link. They are basically recent images of WW2 locations with the original WW2 image overlayed onto to them, You click the image and drag your cursor to reveal both the WW2 scene and the modern scene. I have captured the ghostly image at the mid section of the overlay but just follow the link and you will see what I mean.
Thanks to @Geoffxx for the heads up with the link

I managed to capture a screen shot of
June 1944: American craft of all styles pictured at Omaha Beach, Normandy, during the first stages of the Allied invasion. 7 May 2014: A view of the beach near Colleville-sur-Mer, France. Photographs by Popperfoto/Getty and Peter Macdiarmid/Getty
