    ARLINGTON, Va. (Feb. 21, 2025)–Surviving veterans who fought in the Battle of Iwo Jima pose for photos with members of the Washington D.C. Police Department. The Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Iwo Jima (LHD 7) is the second amphibious assault ship to bear the battle's namesake. Iwo Jima is the flagship of the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group, a force uniquely positioned to deter aggression; project power through presence abroad; and execute contingency missions with its integrated Marine Corps team in support of U.S. strategic interests.
