"December 7, 1941, a day which will live in infamy..." - President Roosevelt after the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor on a Sunday morning when people were just getting up to go to church.

The battle of Iwo Jima - February 19-March 26, 1945. US - 6,822 killed/missing, 19,217 wounded. Japan - 17,845-18,375 killed/missing, 216 captured.

In my opinion an incredible waste of human life, but then that is how I feel about all wars.

From December 7, 1941 until February 19, 1945, a duration of 1169 days.
