Iwo-Jima-Banzai-Attack

Photos of the aftermath of the March 26th Banzai attack.

Over 300 Japanese survivors had been given specific objectives, and were dispatched from their underground lair for a last suicide stand. The final field order read:

Tonight this Brigade will attack the enemy on the Western Beach parallel to Chidori Airfield.

The officers and men of each unit will fight courageously to the end, sacrificing their lives for their country.
