Ho Hum, great thread.
..if you have the time, go and have a look at the BASSA Homepage. The website designer has hijacked the Iwo Jima US Marine image from the assault on Mt Suribachi (sp?), February 1942. Appropriate, whaddya think?
..hmm, 3 of the soldiers in the original didn't make it to the end of the war, and the US handed back the island in the end anyway, albeit in 1968!!
