Mt. Suribachi
Today, in 1945, the colors were raised on Mt Suribachi. A defining moment for your Corps.

Semper Fi! In relation to that event, there is a book that was made into a movie, allthough the book is more detailed, called "Flags of our Fathers". Based on three of the men who raised it, Jack Bradley, Rene Gagnon, and Ira Hayes. A very good read. SF

Without thinking about it, my girlfriend and I happened to watch "Letters from Iwo Jima" last night.
Seriously, watching "Flags of our fathers" followed by "Letters..." a couple weeks later was such an awesome movie watching experience.
