"Iwo Jima will live within the hearts of all persons who were there. No others will ever know the tortures that little island produced."

From the personal narrative of Mike White,
photographer for the USS Pickens, APA 190.

Sixty-nine years ago today victory was achieved in IWO Jima, at a high cost. For the first time Marines suffered more casualties than did the enemy.

But in all seriousness, thanks to the greatest generation for being better men than we have today.

I find it quite easy to say that each of my grandfathers are better men than I am, so up yours.
