Victory at Sea Target Suribachi
Release Date: April 12, 1953 ... (Episode #23)


Episode # 23. The United States fought two battles here--the U.S. Marines at Iwo Jima against the Japanese, and the U.S. Navy against the typhoon. During the now-legendary events depicted in this episode, we reach the final throes of battle in the Pacific war against Japan. And as the scene of the recent Mount Suribachi memorial appears, we are once again reminded of the price that comes before true victory can be achieved.

I recognize some of the Mustang gunsight footage - they used in the BBC World at War series - it's in color there, as originally filmed - very cool.
