HISTORICAL IMPORTANCE: Iwo Jima was Japanese home soil only 650 miles from Tokyo. No foreign army in Japan's 5000 year history had fought on Japanese soil. To the US, Iwo Jima was important because of its location, midway between Japan and American bomber bases in the Marianas. Iwo Jima with its three airfields was an ideal location for fighter-escort stations and as a safe haven for damaged bombers. TRANSITION: There are six men that standout from the rest, these men are known as the Flag Raisers. 1.  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  THE FLAG RAISING: Mount Suribachi is a 550 foot volcanic cone at the island’s southern tip. It dominates both possible-landing beaches, from this point Japanese gunners have every inch of the beaches covered. Every marine on the island was in range of Japanese guns. 2.  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  THE FLAG RAISERS: There were six flag raisers from the 28th Regiment, 5th Division. a.  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Sgt.
