19 Febuary 1045...The invasion of Iwo Jima, my tribute to those Marines
Today is 19 Febuary in the Far East, so we wish to render this small tribute to those Marines and Corpsmen.
On 19 February, 1945, a day that now is a great part of the history of the Marine Corps.
We wish to give our respects to many who were in the service of our beloved Corps.
I made this web page a few years back, warning there's embedded music.
