Story highlights Donald Trump used a mislabeled military training photo in a D-Day tweet

Donald Trump's tweet featured a photo from January 1943

Washington (CNN) Donald Trump's remembrance of D-Day on Twitter included an image that wasn't of the Allied forces' Normandy landing itself, but a training exercise a year earlier.

Trump tweeted: "Remembering the fallen heroes on #DDay - June 6, 1944." Along with that comment was an image of uniformed military forces landing on a beach, displaying the words "D-DAY" and "June 6, 1944."

The Getty photo Trump used isn't from D-Day, according to Getty . It's from a training exercise that took place more than a year earlier, in January 1943, in preparations for the Normandy landing.

The illustration with that photo and the words "D-DAY" displayed appears to have originated on the website of Fox59 in Indianapolis , which included a caption indicating the photo was from a training exercise.

Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks did not immediately respond for a request for comment on why Trump used the image.
