WWII German Dead Cherbourg
 This is for display only! This is NOT the actual print, you will receive! The Associated Press highlights some of its most famous photographs of World War II, as well as rarely seen pictures from its archives, in an exhibition and book timed to coincide with the unveiling of the national World War II Memorial in Washington. Now you may purchase your own version of these historic events.
The dead German soldier seen in this June 1944 photo was one of the "last stand" defenders of German-held Cherbourg. According to Capt. Earl Topley, right, who led one of the first American units into the city on June 27, he is the shooter responsible for killing three of his men. (AP Photo)
