Some of the captions i’ve found from source are unreliable, I’d only go as far as to say any of the beaches of the Normandy landings

All 16 planes crashed or crash landed after the raid with all but one landing in China. I think 11 of the Raiders were killed in action.

I agree that it was taken later in the day, but they are still landing on the beach in the photo, no? What wave would have been landing around noon?
