[QUOTE="surjimmy, post: 3328893, member: 1551"] 75yrs ago today the Marines and 1 Honorary Marine raised the flag over Mt. Suribachi. An Admiral was quoted saying Uncommon Valor was a Common Virtue. 22 Marines was awarded the Medal of Honor. 5 was awarded to Sailors, 4 of which were Navy Corpsman, (Honorary Marines). Only 82 MOH were awarded to Marines in WWII, so that is over 25% in one battle. [/QUOTE]
