High quality version of the video on the main sonicbomb youtube profile.
The Battle of Iwo Jima was fought during the Pacific Campaign of World War II. The defenders were well entrenched and instructed to defend the island to the last man. Composed using rare and original colour footage shot during the campaign. Music sourced from the Band of Brothers soundtrack.

  • @gamergeektwo The allies wouldnt havewn without the US, and US was in pretty much ALL the important battles.

  • With music from "Band of Brothers" OST!!! Nice video!

  • Lets all remember both American and Japanese soldiers who died fighting for their homeland.

    If anyone is interested in Iwo Jima, Flags of Our Fathers and Letters from Iwo Jima are two great war movies.

  • 6:10 The moon landing??

  • reminds me of battlestations pacific. oh, those poor AI marines.

  • the guys on the mountain at 2:23 : need a dispenser here

  • Booooooom :D

  • @SuperSylar1 yeh they did a lot too. my bad

  • It sucked hard for the first 3 waves of marines, sluaghtered before they even knew what hit them, each company had a 10% survival rate R.I.P

  • @gamergeektwo Hey what about canadians they helped too :D, if they're given the task to do something they will do it, they helped liberate Italy, Holland and some towns in Normandy.

  • @swordsmanofhell666 The canadians led Operation Market Garden....

  • @ndkblackhawk, Korean war was started by North Korea, Vietnam War was the indirect result of the Korean War & the politics of the Cold War in general, 1st Gulf War was sanctioned by the UN & the troops of many Muslim & non-Muslim nations fought with the UN Forces to liberate Kuwait, 2nd Gulf War occurred because Sadam had hundreds of tons of 'yellow cake' & because he used a WMD - poison gas (chem-bio Artillery shells) against UN forces in 1991 & against the Kurds & Shiites.

  • @swordsmanofhell666 dont forget the british led the dieppe raid and got 5000 canadians and 50 some rangers slaughtered before they could get off the damn beach

  • yeah 1944. Thank you for correcting me. Think I wouldnt mess up on something like thank you.

  • You mean in 1944.

  • Now this is how you fight a war. No stupid politics just fight!

  • RIP ALL THE DEVIL DOGS THAT DIED

  • Very little of the technology developed in the United States is developed with public funds. Most technology is developed by private companies that could set up anywhere else in the world, but choose to setup in the United States due to its large economy and wealth of personel. Also trading from America is alot easier then trading from elsewhere. Its more the fault of those countries with strict tariffs, export laws and VAT; not really the US.

  • just putting it out there.. in 1945 the invasion of normandy the US got Omaha beach which wasw the hardest one.. The British led Operation Market Garden and it failed.. Patton was and could have finished the war by Christmas.....

  • well america is making the whole world rely on its technology and then one day it will stop supplying and all the countries will be helpless i woulld rather face hitler then see what america has in store

  • one of my friends say that the U.s. kicked japan, Germans, and the italions ass in world war 2 but I said alot of marines died "Kicking their ass". I thought the British, French, Russians, and the australions did the most important battles in the war. respect to all soldiers who died in the war.

  • The war did, the attacks did not.

  • the iraq war ended in 2003.

  • The Iraq War is pretty much over. We already won. There's still suicide bombings but that's pretty much just desperate acts of barbarity by islamists. They don't threaten to overthrow the government of Iraq.

  • iwo jima!

    i just saw that film. I was up for the Japs. They wanted it more
