Default Famous Historical Pictures

I was amazed that there wasn't already a thread on history pictures. This one I think is one of the most famous, the first meeting of three world powers durning world war two. They are all sitting because FDR's advisors would not allow any pictures to be taken unless all of the leaders were sitting, because of FDR's weak legs. Stalin had a fit over it but eventually agreed. What pictures do you think capture a huge turning point in history?

Not famous, but it is kinda hystorical..




British psyops printed this fake German Armed Forces PaymentCertificate dropped into ww2 occupied europe.

The text says: "I am a piece of Hitler's ass-paper. Nobody accepts me because nobody can buy anything with me."
