IWOJIMA
Beachhead to Tokyo
The 20,000 Japs on fwo Jlma knew It was
coming. For 72 straight days they quaked
under the ferocious shelling of the great
American Navy task force offshore. For 72
slroighl days they had somehow survived
the repeated bombings of wide-winged U. S.
planes. They knew it was coming and
prepared for it, with row upon row of pill
boxes and machine gun nests, dotting the
length and breadth of Iwo's 8 square miles
of sultry volcanic ash.
It came. Dawn broke clear on the morn
ing of February 10, 1945, as more than 800
landing craft left Admiral Richard Turner's
fleet and headed for the forbidding shores.
The Japs waited, silent in their caves, while
40,000 leathernecks of the 4th and 5th Mar
ine Divisions drew up on the beaches. Then
they opened up savagely, mowing down
wave after wave of courageous Americans
swarming upward from the boats. And still
the Marines came on, reinforced by the 3rd
Division.
Motoyama Air Field No. 1 was the Imme
diate objective. To this strip the Murines,
with their tanks and flame throwers, rapidly
advanced, knocking out pillboxes on' the
way, riding hard over the charred bodies
of dead Japs, and even dead comrades. Mo
toyama Was taken, and made ready for our
planes.

Greater struggles were ahead. Marine
forces in the Mt. Suribachi area to the south
were being whittled down constantly by
Japs nested deep in the lava-mude gullies
of the extinct 500 foot volcano. Steadily the
leathernecks inched up its hardened sides,
under the most adverse fighting conditions.
They slept, when they could, in fonholes
fouled by volcanic vapors and the stench of
dead Jups. They cooked their meals, when
there was time, in tins held over steaming
ground fissures. The going was tough, even
for leiithernecks, but after duys of fighting
and hardship, Suribuchi, too, wus theirs. And
the dramatic radiophoto of Murines raising
Old Glory on its craggy, lunar peak will
live forever in our history us a high point
in valor.
The rcmulnder of the Iwo campaign wus
devoted to "mopping up" hiking the sec
ond air strip, wiping clean the lust pockets
of resistance. On March 17, 11)45, the buttle
wus officially over, with our dead number
ing over the 4,000 mark, us enmpured to
more thun five times that many Jups.
This is how it was, on Iwo Jima. Tragic,
brutal, unbelievably heroic is the story, un
immortal tribute to the fighting, dying Mur
ines who, with their life's blood, made secure
this great little stopping stone to Tokyo
just 705 miles uway.
