Thanks. My Dad was there on the beach when that flag was raised (Iwo Jima, that is)

Well hats off to your Dad and all those guys that day whose bravery is almost unfathomable, in contrast to these homo dweebs who don’t even deserve to be spoken of in the same sentence.

From http://www.recordsofwar.com/iwo/dead/dead.htm#r

...It is not easy to do so. Some of us have buried our closest friends here. We saw these men killed before our very eyes. Any one of us might have died in their places; Indeed, some of us are alive and breathing at this very moment only because the men who lie here beneath us had the courage and the strength to give their lives, for ours.

To speak in memory of such men as these is not easy. Of them too it can be said with utter truth: The world will little note nor long remember what we say here. It can never forget what they did here...

RIP Ryan, Edward C, PFC, KIA, 26th Marines, USMC

I can think of nothing printable to say of the Sodomist or the racist mouthpiece of LaRaza who also profaned the Iwo Jima flag raising on his web site years ago to symbolize the Reconquista effort.
