75th Anniversary Of Saint-Lo Liberation
French army veterans and flag-bearers during the celebrations of the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Saint-Lo at the Major Howie monument in Saint-Lo. Saint-Lo was destoyed during the Second World War, after American bombardments caused heavy damage in town (up to 95% of the city was destroyed) and a high number of casualties, which resulted in the martyr city being called 'The Capital of Ruins'. On Thursday, July 18, 2019, in St-Lo, Normandy, France. (Photo by Artur Widak/NurPhoto)
