Yes, that's it! Thank you, I couldn't find it when I looked.

For future reference, that's the Iwo Jima memorial. XD Might come in handy in a Google image search in the future. XD

Iwo Jima is an amazing, sad story, you really should look it up.
I love Civil war history mostly, but I found out about Iwo Jima when I went to Washington.
It's a HUGE monument! lol

Iwo Jima, I thought it might be that, but I forgot to search for it by that. Whatever it was I searched for was way off.

Wahaha. I found that picture by doing a Google image search for "Iwo Jima memorial". XD

know what's cool, my grandfather saw that really happen on mt. suribachi when he was on iwo jima, they actually aren't catching a falling flag, but instead raising the flag for all to see on the island

*goes to rummage around for his jar containing black sand from iwo jima to show off*

Here's the original picture.

And the guys in the original film raising it weren't the guys that took the hill too for future reference.
