Troops of the 1st Battalion, 16th Infantry Regiment, 1st Division, Omaha Beach
1st Dvision assault troops wade ashore from their LCVP at Easy Red Sector, Omaha Beach opposite Saint Laurent sur Mer at 07:30.
This LCVP, more commonly known as a Higgins Boat, was crewed by US Coast Guard volunteers and was based on the U.S.S. Samuel Chase (APA 26). It has grounded on a sandbank leaving the troops a long slog through the surf to the uncertain safety of the beach.
On the beach the dark object is a tank A Co, 741st Tank Bn, landed to support the assault troops.
