A Norman-style house on Juno Beach, decorated with the Canadian flag. This beach was assigned to the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division during D-Day. The Canadians faced some of the strongest defenses and suffered heavy casualties, but managed to penetrate further inland than any other Allied force on the first day.
