On February 19th, 1945 elements of the 4th and 5th Marine Divisions land on Iwo Jima. That's me (many moons ago) when I had a chance to visit Iwo. Mt Suribachi is behind me. I'm at the other end of the island.

I don't really consider it history because it happened in my lifetime. I remember when it happened. I remember Marines who were going to Camp Pendleton, with me, were turned around and sent east to replace the ones lost on that day.
