Synopsis
The story of one of the bloodiest battles in history, resulting in the raising of the American flag on Mt. Suribachi, is documented with a personal touch; the author himself was a member of that company. It is a searing and unique account of that battle, told from the perspective of both the gallant U.S. Marines who invaded the island and the brave Japanese soldiers who defended it., A searing, unique account of the battle at two Jima, the author offers both a personal first-hand account of the events of February 19, 1945 as well as some perspective from the Japanese soldiers via previously unpublished material given to him from a former Japanese staff officer. Wheeler's story is very much a personal one as well, for he is a member of the company that raised the famous flag on Mt. Suribachi.

    The plates arrive well packaged; shipping took less time than 10 days and the were just as described, the pictures made it easier to identify my pattern. I have to say the price was great. I just needed one but ended up with the 3 described. now have a full set again (plus a couple spare). Thank you Purple door store! I highly recommend the site for any replacements.

  • Strong no nonsense book WWII

    Book makes the reader realize just how hard IWO was to WWII support & how much our military had to suffer + first book read that has lots of comments from the Japanese side...........Let us hope we never have another like this!! Ties in good with "Flags of our Fathers"

  • I would from someone who was there

    Probably the best history of the battle for Iwo Jima. Written by a Marine that was there. Great details and written in an easy to read style. Holds your attention and is hard to put down. Every American should read.
