This picture was taken at the “Landing Memorial” in Saint-Tropez, Côte d’Azur, France. The memorial honors the American, British and French landing troops who came ashore in the Provence on the 15th of August 1944.

The memorial also honors the French commandos led by Henri D’Astier de la Vigerie, who landed on Saint-Tropez on the 17th of August 1944.

More information about the memorial, including the text of the two inscriptions, is available on the Page “Les monuments aux morts” of the University of Lille, France.
