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.

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

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