English: IWM caption : PHOTOGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE FOR OPERATION 'OVERLORD'. Overhead aerial of the gun battery at Merville (3km east of Ouistreham) consisting of four medium casemates, after air bombardment, c May 1944. Bombing failed to penetrate the casemates and, because of the threat the battery posed to the landings on SWORD Area, it was attacked and neutralised by 9th Bn the Parachute Regiment in the early hours of 6 June.
