    Charles Cram, former U.S. Navy Pharmacist Mate 2nd Class and a veteran of the Battle of Iwo Jima, presents a Japanese flag to Japanese dignitaries after the 80th Reunion of Honor ceremony at Iwo To, Japan, March 29, 2025. The 80th Reunion of Honor is a milestone anniversary that commemorates the sacrifices made by both Japanese and American service members during the Battle of Iwo Jima, honoring their legacy and ensuring their stories are preserved for future generations. This milestone anniversary serves as a reminder of the enduring partnership between both nations and the progress made toward regional stability over the past 80 years. The U.S. Marine Corps was born on November 10th, 1775. From that day until the present, Marines have served with distinction in every clime and place, including the hallowed battlefields of Iwo Jima. This year, the U.S. Marine Corps celebrates 250 years of honor, courage, and commitment across the globe. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by 2nd Lt. Taiyo Tatara)
