Only because Hitler invaded their beloved Soviet Union, not because of anything Hitler did to the US.
Just watched it on dvd. It's a movie about a war bond drive with a few action scenes thrown in. And the action scenes are mostly flashbacks featuring the flag raisers especially Ira Hayes. The movie is mostly about the Marines involved who raised the flag on their post-Iwo bond drive tour and their emotional reactions. Not what I expected. I'm sure a lot of Hollyweird lib types will love this film. I didn't. I wanted to see a movie about how the Marines took Iwo Jima. It was almost entirely something else.
