SHAEF, London, England (AP) –
The white star insignia appearing in photographs from the Normandy battlefront is a symbol for the entire Allied Expeditionary Force and should not be confused as the identification for the U.S. Army or any one nation, headquarters announced today.

The symbol is daubed on every Allied machine, both on the ground and in the air.
