Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Synagogue on D-Day

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Original - A synagogue on West Twenty-Third Street in New York City remained open 24 hours on D-Day for special services and prayer.
Reason
The Library of Congress has several photographs from houses of worship on D-Day. The sign above the entrance on this example makes the occasion unmistakable. There's something in the faces of these three people; an understated image. Restored version of File:Synagogue D-Day.jpg.
