Travel to one of the most important moments of World War II - a moment that became a symbol not only of American heroism, but also of the unwavering will to survive. On February 23, 1945, six Marines raised the US flag on the top of Mount Suribachi. This extraordinary scene, immortalized by photographer Joe Rosenthal, became one of the most recognizable images of World War II, a symbol of courage, sacrifice and strength of spirit.
The "Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima" block set from COBI allows you to build this legendary shot, which has survived not only in photographs, but also in the hearts of all who remember heroic sacrifice of those who fought in the Pacific.
The Battle of Iwo Jima - Fight for Every Piece of Land
From February 19 to March 26, 1945, the ruthless fighting for the island of Iwo Jima raged in a storm of fire and conflict. The Battle of Suribachi Peak, which ended on February 23, was not the end of this battle. In fact, Japanese soldiers, defending themselves by hiding in a dense network of tunnels and bunkers, resisted until the last days of March. Of the American Marines who were forever immortalized in the photograph, three lost their lives as a result of this further brutal struggle.
This photograph - the moment when the flag appeared over the island - became a symbol not only of victory, but also of the ultimate sacrifice. The Pulitzer Prize for Joe Rosenthal was only the symbolic crowning achievement of this moment that touched the hearts of people around the world.
