| Description |
"Marines and their equipment on the Motoyama airfield number one are dwarfed by the Suribachi Volcano in the background. This sheer rock formation was the highest point of land on Iwo Jima and from well defended positions in the honey-combed caves, the Japanese laid a murderous fire on the Leatherneck beachhead." From the Holland M. Smith Collection (COLL/2949) at the Marine Corps History Division OFFICIAL USMC PHOTOGRAPH |
