THE FLAG RAISING ON IWO JIMA
Morning, 1020, Mount Suribachi
23 February 1945
This was Lt Schrier's 40-man combat patrol from E-2-28; later that day, another "replacement" flag was raised and that was captured on camera by Joe Rosenthal...

hello to all. my uncle jack thurman was at the flag raising at iwo jima. i have seen a picture of him at this site. he is one of the men to the far right. the photo is a front shot, all inclusive. if anyone has a copy of that original photo, could you please send it to me on the e-maillisted below?

an update on jack: he lives in colorado and is about 80 some. he just burried his mother at 100 years old. what a celebration of life!

thank you,

michele coughlin
