Veterans of the Battle of Iwo Jima are escorted to the Reunion of Honor memorial during 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 battle fields 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
