• Information about cover appears on page 20, reading as follows:
  LIFE'S COVER: Dwight David Eisenhower, a 53-year-old Kansan with a crooked grin, was a monument to the hope of men in many nations last week. He had taken the great responsibility and made the irrevocable decision. Now the outcome of the battles was largely in the hands of his field commanders and their men. The supreme commander's days, however, were still full. For a glimpse of general's family on D-day, see pp. 41–44.
• Photo credit on page 23 reads "Official U.S. Army Photo".
