DVD-HEROES OF IWO JIMA

For nearly a month, U.S. Marines fought entrenched Japanese defenders for control of the tiny island. In the end, over 25,000 soldiers died--more than 3,000 for each square mile of Iwo Jima. HEROES OF IWO JIMA DVD looks at the legendary WWII battle through the lenses of two photographers. Joe Rosenthal took the famous picture of five U.S. Marines and one Navy corpsman raising the U.S. flag atop Mt. Suribachi. But hours earlier, a similar moment was captured in a picture that is nearly forgotten.
