THE WILLIAMSPORT SUN, Pennsylvania, June 6, 1944
* D-Day invasion of France
* World War II German defense
* FRONT LEAF ONLY ****
The front page banner headline announces: "ALLIED FORCES, LANDING ON COAST OF FRANCE, PUSH STEADILY INLAND" and a 3 line, 2 column subhead: "Advance Of Several Miles Reported, Losses Are Far Smaller Than Anticipated" with more. Related heads include: "Eisenhower Warns Patriots to Avoid Premature Uprising" "Mayor Invites Community To D-Day Prayers" "President Pens Victory Prayers, On Air Tonight" & "Russia Prepares To Back Up New Allied Assault". Also on the front page is a 4 column map: "Where Allies Strike on European Invasion".
Note: this is the front leaf only, with pages 1 and 2. Still nice for display as such.
