    Imarangemaster,

    That first photo of yours sits on my wall signed by Charles Lindberg who commanded the section who put the original flag up on Mount Sarubachi. He was "pi**ed" off because he had to raise it again for the Cameramen who missed the original lift, and names of those raising it were confused forever.
    He died the year after he signed it for me 2007.
