Today is the 70th anniversary of the battle of Iwo Jima
On the fifth day of battle, one of the most historic events of World War II took place. On February 23rd, the 48-star American flag was raised on Japanese soil for the first time atop Mt. Suribachi. Joe Rosenthal’s photograph of the second, larger flag to be raised that day became an iconic image and the most recognized symbol of WWII American heroism. Thank You For Your Services & Sacrifice.
