Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which man witnessed the D-Day invasion of Normandy as a war correspondent?"
...No American writer is more associated with writing about war in the early 20th century than Ernest Hemingway. He experienced it firsthand, and used war as a backdrop for many of his most memorable works. Hemingway based many of his stories on his experiences during World War II. As a war correspondent for Collier’s magazine in 1944, Ernest Hemingway took part in the D-Day invasion of Normandy on a landing craft, coming in on the seventh wave after most of the action was ended. Hemingway accompanied American troops as they landed on Omaha Beach in Normandy.
