Description
The Iwo Jima Marine Corps Memorial sits on a gentle grassy hill in Arlington, Virginia, adjacent to the Arlington National Cemetery, across the Potomac from Washington, D.C.
The statue, by Austrian-born American sculptor Felix de Weldon, depicts five Marines and a U.S. Navy sailor raising an American flag on Mount Suribachi, Iwo Jima, after a bloody battle with Japanese forces in World War Two. It was inspired by a famous war-time photograph by Joe Rosenthal.
