80th ANNIVERSAY OF THE BATTLE OF IWO JIMA
A Timeless Tribute to a Pivotal WWII Battle For over 25 years, this important and patriotic event
has honored a battle that played a crucial role in shaping history. It serves as a lasting reminder of the sacrifices made during World War II and the events that led to the planned invasion of Japan—an operation that, thankfully, never took place. Had it proceeded, estimates suggest over a million lives could have been lost, including many Marines. This commemoration ensures we never forget the bravery and impact of those who fought.
The Battle of Iwo Jima took place during World War II from February 19 to March 26, 1945. It was a major battle in which the United States Marine Corps and United States Navy Landed on and eventually captured the island of Iwo Jima from the Imperial Japanese Army.
