The famous photo of the Marines raising the American flag on Mount Suribachi has made Iwo Jima one of World War II’s most iconic battle sites. More than 30,000 Marines and 350 American ships participated in this bloody five-week battle against over 22,000 Japanese soldiers encased in a well-fortified network of caves and tunnels. Learn how the conquest of this tiny island played a vital role in the U.S. bombing campaign against the Japanese homeland in the final months of World War II.
