Battle of Iwo Hima (19 feb 1945 año – 26 mar 1945 año)

Descripción:

Getting Iwo Jima was important because it had three airplane landing strips that were used for kamikaze flights and it was an easy way to get to the mainland. The battle was mainly a naval bombardment and over 23,000 navy soldiers died to get the victory.
