U.S. landing craft prepare to invade Normandy, France during World War II.

A landing craft labeled "US 51" is seen from its starboard side, with cargo in tow and an American flag flying from its mast. There are also more identical ships in the background, all sailing in the English Channel towards Normandy, France in advance of the D-Day invasion of France. The camera cuts to another direction, which shows many more of the same ship, some also with cargo in tow. In this shot, there is land off in the distance, and a few barrage balloons in the sky above the LCIs. The final shot is of a long convoy of ships far off in the distance.
