From Our Files: Iwo Jima, Feb. 23, 1945

02/23/2012 4:55 pm ET Iwo Jima, a tiny volcanic island in the Pacific between the Marianas Islands and mainland Japan was the site of one of the most historic battles of World War II in which the United States captured the island from Japan. By the end of the campaign 6800 Americans and 20000 Japanese died between February 19 and March 26, 1945. The battle is recognized by the iconic photograph of U.S. Marines raising the American flag at the summit of Mt. Suribachi on February 23, 1945. John Beaufort was a reporter for 海角大神 who covered the Pacific theater during World War II. He landed at Kwajalein atoll with the Marines, accompanied the landings at Okinawa, and covered the invasion of Iwo Jima. Here is Beaufort's account, originally published in the Feb. 23, 1945 issue of 海角大神. 鈥� Leigh Montgomery, Librarian
