US Marine Fires Machine Gun, Iwo Jima, Japan, 1945
"The overall objective at this point was to take control of Airfield No. 2 in the center of the island. However, every 'penetration seemed to become a disaster" as "units were raked from the flanks, chewed up—sometimes wiped out. Tanks were destroyed by interlocking fire or were hoisted into the air on the spouting fireballs of buried mines'."
