    First Flag

    I had a neighbor Ted Folari who was in that first detail that raised the small flag. He remembers Lt Schrier taking it out of his pack. Ted was still on the top when the famous second flag was raised but he was about 50 yards away guarding the perimeter against the occasional Japs still alive in holes.
