A photo of Iwo Jima, and the first flag raised there, that I know none of you have ever seen before. It was taken by Captain Dan Colburn, from the cockpit of his PBM Mariner moored just off shore of Iwo. I had the honour of growing up just down the street from him, and recently he has given me his medals (DFC, Air Medal, Service Medals), and is possibly going to give me his photos from the war. This is a photo I took of one of them when I last saw him a week ago, to post for a photo to put in the medal shadowbox I'm putting together to display his awards:
