The sixth is of a pair of photographs captioned 'Tactical bombing in support of the Army' that reports the tactical bombing that was undertaken a few days after the heavy bomber operation to on Caen. The first shows the initial bombs exploding in the middle of the target.

Bomber Command]]> Royal Air Force]]> France]]> Great Britain]]> England--Suffolk]]> France--Caen]]> 1944-07-18]]> The first captioned 'Our armour moves inland from the beaches of Normandy'. This shows part of the beach with landing craft and vehicles. It also shows roads parallel to the beach and roads going inland with many vehicles using them.
The second shows part of Caen after the post D Day bombing. It shows the utter devastation of the city after these raids.
The third captioned 'Bridges bombed by the Allied Air Forces' shows road and rail bridges away from the immediate area of the D Day landings. The first photograph shows two railway bridges over the Meuse at Namur both heavily damaged. The second shows a bridge over a canal at Herenthals completely destroyed. The third photograph is a railway viaduct at Hirson/Origny with three spans destroyed. The fourth is the railway bridge at Hasselt which is badly damage and adjacent infrastructure destroyed.
The fourth clipping has no descriptive text, but is a low level photograph of a small part of a port town showing a river junction, roofless buildings, bomb craters, a dock basin and a number of bridges.
The fifth shows the cratering in open country created in support of ground operations around Caen.
