"In a picture that captures the violence and sheer destruction inherent in war perhaps more graphically than any other ever published in LIFE, Marines take cover on an Iwo Jima hillside amid the burned-out remains of banyan jungle, as a Japanese bunker is obliterated in March 1945." link Hope you enjoy!.

"George Strock's photo was finally OK'd by government censors, in part because FDR feared the public was growing complacent about the war's horrific toll." link That's not quite true. FDR wanted this photo released to harden the American public to the coming losses. It was not that he felt the American public was "complacent" to the losses, but wanted them to understand that many more American boys were going to die like this in the next 2 years. Good series of photos. link
