    D-Day revisted on the Military Channel

    Last evening on the military channel there was a show with WW II US vets reliving and retracing their movements on D-Day and up to D-Day +6. One rather quick snap of the Germans setting up to repel the "invaders" showed a Germanicon sniper or infantry man carrying a No.4(T). Anyone else watching catch it ?? The picture of the Britishicon sailor herding the German prisoners down the street with a MP 44 has been well shown, but first time seeing a German carrying a No.4(T).

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    I've seen a photo several times that shows a Germanicon soldier with a 4(T). Its always attributed to D-Day, but there seems to be no particular evidence for its time and location.

    Is this the image from footage seen?
