At least US bomber landed on Iwo even before the volcano was taken. Hundreds more by the next weeks.

2400 US planes in all. 24,000 US airmen (your predecessors!) in all.

I'm not maintaining Iwo Jima's airfields weren't a strategic "help" -- just that not proportionally worthy of the cost by a longshot.
