Uncovering an Error Regarding the Iconic Photograph Showing the Raising of the US Flag on Iwo Jima.

Tuesday, 25th February 2020 - 7:00pm
Uncovering an Error Regarding the Iconic Photograph Showing the Raising of the US Flag on Iwo Jima.

The iconic photo from Iwo Jima, taken by Joe Rosenthal of the Associated Press on February 23, 1945, came with a caption identifying the 6 marines involved.

However after carefully studying other photos taken at the time, Stephen believed that one of the names was wrong and in October last year, the US Marine Corps accepted that he was right.
