EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photo print, we are transported back to the Headquarters of the Ninth Airforce in England during World War II. The image captures a significant moment as officers from one of the Bulldozer battalions pause on a beachhead on D-Day to examine a map with Major General Ralph Royce, the deputy commander of the 9th airforce. The scene is filled with determination and focus as these brave men strategize and plan their next moves for Operation Overlord. On the left stands Captain Raymond N. Carlen, exuding confidence and leadership. Next to him is Lieutenant Colonel John J. Livingston, an engineer whose expertise would prove invaluable in constructing the American Energy landing strip. At the center of attention is Major General Ralph Royce himself, radiating authority and wisdom.
