The Iwo Jima Monument, located north of Arlington Cemetery, is a group of sculptures in a large green space. The monument was built to honor the fallen U.S. Marines in World War II. According to a news photo at the time, the image of 6 Marines who braved the hail of bullets to plant the American flag on Mount Oriba on Iwo Jima was created. The American flag on the monument is an actual flag, raised and lowered daily by soldiers guarding the cemetery.

The Iwo Jima Sea War Memorial is also a pretty good-looking, commemorating the naval battles of the United States and Japan during World War II. It is also a very important milestone, and it is very valuable for the whole process of World War II.
I remember that the U.S. military died in Iwo Jima at that time. At that time, the U.S. Marine Corps was oversized, with tens of thousands of divisions. The Japanese army was estimated to be insufficient, thinking that more than 10,000, in fact more than 20,000. And the terrain is also unfavorable, the slope is large, and the ash is very slippery!
The Iwo Jima Marine War Memorial is a large green space on the north side of Arlington Cemetery in Washington, DC. It was built to honor the American Marines who died in the battle of Iwo Jima in World War II. The American flag on the monument is raised and lowered regularly by soldiers every day, which is very ritual.
The Iwo Jima Sea War Memorial, located in downtown Washington, is surrounded by trees and a group of statues of American soldiers who died in the most violent Iwo Jima Sea War in the Pacific War in World War II.
