deadpresidents: todaysdocument: Marines raising the flag atop Mount Suribachi during the battle for Iwo Jima, February 23, 1945. Always awesome. By the way, the best part of this is watching the soldier standing to the right during the flag-raising who turns and reacts like “What…what did I miss?  Shit!  I probably should have gotten involved in that!”
