Best Answer

After the Americans took over Iwo Jima, the Japanese had nothing left to them but Retreat. They took all the military force they had and went back to the closest base to Iwo Jima. Though the battle ended officially on March 26th, the Japanese surrendered on the 16th, but resistance remained until the 26th. 1,000 of the survivors were taken prisoner, while the remaining 1,000 or so went to the nearest base.
