Photos taken by Robert Capa during the Normandy Landings, later known as part of the “Magnificent Eleven.”  

Although Capa took over one hundred photos during the initial landings on June 6th, a darkroom technician accidently ruined most of the film during processing.  All but eleven of the photos taken were lost.
