Just a quick note: I was watching a show on TV the other day, it was the Smithsonian Channel and was about the photogs on Iwo Jima. I believe that most if not all of the film was genuine from Iwo film. Anyway, there was a combat photog holding a carbine, high wood, type two band, type 3 sights and a 30 round magazine! I'd never seen any 30s in any of these fims before.

Pure conjecture, but these guys were being shipped into and out of Iwo for the whole battle. The main boss was flown all the way back to Pearl just to explain the photograph that was taken by Rosenthal to top brass. They also flew out the film and still shots everyday to Guam and Pearl , so it may be that some guy straight from the states showed up with a new magazine.

That's one hell of a display, anything missing from known makers ?
