Just got done with the Iwo Jima Commemoration and have lots of pics. There is an ominous feeling about the entire island! Its almost calming though. So much History involved and an honor to be a part of the OP 2010

Thanks for posting this and thanks to all of our ww2 vets. Semper fi.

Age will not weary them,

Nor the years condemn,

At the setting of the sun,

and in the morning,

We will remember.

Semper Fi

Danny was a soft spoken guy, being 19 at the time and the first combat he saw, running down the ramp of his LCVP landing craft and seeing his best friend - a 15 year old Marine nick-named "Chick" decapitated was too much for him. From that moment, and until 60 years later, Danny was tormented by the visions of the dead on Iwo. he told me of ghosts that would come and haunt him in his sleep, that he would awake in a pool of cold sweat and thought he was back THERE in Iwo...
