After the landing in Normandy and the capture of Cherbourg, Allied war correspondents moved with advancing troops through the Normandy hinterland. Mont-Saint-Michel, which had remained largely intact during the German occupation, served shortly after its liberation in summer 1944 as a rest point for press correspondents. Jack Lieb captured this encounter in color — a rare color documentation of the press corps in liberated France.
