YELLOW BEACH - BAY OF PAMPELONNE
An M4A1 Sherman tank of the 756th Tank Battalion B-Company with a Caterpillar "tank-mounting bulldozer M1" at Yellow Beach. The mounted device was meant to clear a beach path against mines and other obstacles. The tank's extended exhaust and intake ports facilitated operation in heavy surf.
