September 11th and the Spirit of Iwo Jima

Five years ago, we remembered American heroism in a photograph that paid tribute to the soldiers of World War II.








At Iwo Jima, we lost over 6,000 men in a mere six weeks, fighting for a piece of rock that was necessary to victory.










Today we fighting terrorism in a theater that has cost over 2500 American lives.
















The spirit of victory is the spirit of Iwo Jima.
