Boys On Iwo Jima & Horrors of War
This is a great story - if you haven't read James Bradley's "Flags of our Fathers" I urge you to do so - it is a great read and recounts the battle of Iwo Jima and the horror of the loss of life there in an unforgettable manner.

I did not intend to infringe on anyones copyright just bring attention to an interesting story & topic. When the story was e-mailed to me (I'm sure it's all over the web now) it was not attributed to an author nor a source. If the authors name was attached to the story I innocently lifted I think it would create interest in his book and possibly lead to sales. I believe in giving credit where it is due.
