Flags of Our Fathers

Flags of Our Fathers

World War Two
 

The battle of Iwo Jima 

 

February 19 - March 26, 1945

 

The sands of Iwo Jima, black and bleak

 

A canvas painted with valor, raw and weak

 

A battle fought with fire in their eyes

 

Beneath a sky of smoke and endless cries 

 

The mountain looms, a jagged stony tooth

 

Soldiers crawled and charged in battle

 

Brothers in arms, soldiers of war

 

A brotherhood forged deep in blood and fire 

 

On the island of Iwo Jima 

 

An iconic photograph of six American soldiers raising the American flag 

 

A moment frozen in time and history 

 

Shadows cast with bravery and courage 

 

Old Glory stands true and tall on the island of Iwo Jima

 

A symbol of freedom and valor 

 

A burning candle of sacrifice and courage

 

Red, white, and blue flames of America 

 

The flags of our fathers stands true with victory and valor 🇺🇸🪖🪖🪖🎖🎖🎖

There is no triumph in war, just misery and death.
