Gudalcanal, Midway, Iwo Jima, Okinawa,
Normandy, the Battle of the Bulge, Midway, and Iwo Jima-
Based on the equally famous World War II photograph taken soon after the actual incident, the famous 'Iwo Jima statue' represents the capturing of Mt. Suribachi -- the highest point on the island of Iwo Jima -- by American Marines. More largely, the statue is dedicated to all those Marines who have died in defense of their country since 1775.
Iwo Jima was an improper pronunciation which became common during World War II. The Japanese government changed the name back to its pre-war pronunciation on June 18, 2007. The mispronunciation came about due to a change in Japanese orthography in 1946.
No American soldiers were awarded the Medal of Honor for the battle of Iwo Jima, largely because no American soldiers fought the battle of Iwo Jima. (Marines get really mad if you call them soldiers, and Iwo Jima was a Marine action.) Twenty-three Marines and four sailors earned the Medal of Honor for this battle. Fourteen of the Medals were earned posthumously--the recipient died doing his heroic action. Only eighty-two Marines earned the Medal in all of World War II.
