I have visited the Marine Corps Museum at the Washington Navy Yard. There on display are the first and second flags raised on Iwo Jima. There's a little citation there, signed by I think 4 of the 6 who were in the Rosenthal photo. The feeling, just looking at those flags, and knowing what they meant, in that nice quiet 2nd floor hall, can't be described.
