The roof of Fort du Homet, Cherbourg, June 1944.
Pst. Hopefully, some of these upcoming French/German arms/AFVs will make their appearance on certain 1944 maps as well… :)

Burning T-70 in Uuksujoki, close to Ladoga, 7 July 1944.
Spoiler
T-70 caught the Finns by surprise, as it rushed through the lines. At least one Finnish troop was wounded before the lone tank was KO-ed by 76 K 02.

J.D Salinger somewhere in Normandy with a typewriter.

He would a few years later write Catcher in the rye, by some considered one of the best generational novels of its time
