Royal Mail has withdrawn a stamp design marking the 75th anniversary of D-Day - after BBC News pointed out it showed US troops landing in what was Dutch New Guinea, nearly 8,500 miles from France.

You couldn't make it up, talk about lack of research! Just as insulting to US troops, or any of the other nation that were there.
Even if you weren't sure, there is an institution that would be more than happy
to help.
It called The Imperial War Museum.
I'm tempted to send them the link:
