US Army M1919 Browning machine gun crew (possibly the 2nd Battalion, 26th Infantry Regiment) in action against German defenders in the streets of Aachen on the 15th October 1944.

This is one of the most amazing photos of the morning of June 6, 1944 that I’ve ever seen. These are US Army Rangers heading into to Omaha beach….I’m sure for many of these kids, and they are kids, this was their last few minutes in this life.
