Greetings azhenfud:

Just a trivia question: From what ship did the first flag of Iwo come? Name & type?

From Coast Guard manned LST-758, of course.

Cheers,
OLA

Good evening!

Good info - but LST-758 was the source for the larger, second flag.

The smaller, first was from APA-211, USS Missoula - a Haskell class transport.
