Mr. Philip Jutrus, (shown above), the curator of The Airborne Museum at Sainte Mere-Eglise, France. In 1994, Philip found the image of Pointe du Hoc in damaged condition, size 8" X 10". The photograph taken from an Army Air Corp plane approximately 1800 ft. above the coastline, was digitally enhanced and artistically preserved to capture the dramatics of the final image.

To the left, is a personal letter written to me as a thank you from John Eisenhower. A copy of the Normandy Print was sent to the Eisenhower family as a gift to honor his father, General Dwight D. Eisenhower.
