available on the Iwo Jima 2016 tour in March. Originally limited to 30 guests, we were sold out before the 2015 tour had even finished. But now, we have been cleared to take another 20 guests. Six of those seats have already been claimed. So if you are interested in the Iwo Jima tour, please contact us so we can provide any information you need to make your decision.
Iwo Jima, with its three airfields, was ideally located as a fighter-escort station; it was also an ideal sanctuary for crippled bombers returning from Japan. The U.S. Air Force fought in the longest sustained aerial offensive of the war, and more Marines were sent to Iwo Jima than to any other battle. More medals for heroism were awarded for action on Iwo Jima than any battle in the history of the U.S. Our historians will discuss the American and Japanese strategies and the bloody battle that ensued for 36 days as we tour Iwo Jima. It is atop Mt. Suribachi that the flag was raised, indicating victory on Iwo Jima. It is this picture that is etched in our minds as we remember Iwo Jima, “Uncommon Valor was a Common Virtue.”
