Synopsis
The story of one of the bloodiest battles in history, resulting in the raising of the American flag on Mt. Suribachi, is documented with a personal touch; the author himself was a member of that company. It is a searing and unique account of that battle, told from the perspective of both the gallant U.S. Marines who invaded the island and the brave Japanese soldiers who defended it., A searing, unique account of the battle at two Jima, the author offers both a personal first-hand account of the events of February 19, 1945 as well as some perspective from the Japanese soldiers via previously unpublished material given to him from a former Japanese staff officer. Wheeler's story is very much a personal one as well, for he is a member of the company that raised the famous flag on Mt. Suribachi.

    Seller said packaging may vary and it is different from the images in the listing, so I’m not 100% sure this is the exact same product I wanted to purchase (haven’t tried it), but let’s say it’s close enough. Order was shipped promptly, but without notification or tracking so I didn’t realize it had shipped. Messaged seller for a shipping confirmation (three days after placing the order), but did not get a response… the order arrived a few days after. Package arrived open but contents were ok.

    An outstanding, very dedicated seller with a high level of integrity. I was highly satisfied with my purchase beginning with the hones ty / accuracy of the ad through the extraordinary care sending it. This seller excels in all of eBay's rating categories (5 Stars +++ all the way). In addition, the vitamins were accessed from new inventory ( even the factory packaging was in mint condition), and the expiration date was well into the future.

  • Strong no nonsense book WWII

    Book makes the reader realize just how hard IWO was to WWII support & how much our military had to suffer + first book read that has lots of comments from the Japanese side...........Let us hope we never have another like this!! Ties in good with "Flags of our Fathers"

  • I would from someone who was there

    Probably the best history of the battle for Iwo Jima. Written by a Marine that was there. Great details and written in an easy to read style. Holds your attention and is hard to put down. Every American should read.
