Is that Iwo Jima itself in the Pacific, or the Iwo Jima Memorial in Virginia which overlooks DC?

(By the way, I have seen the original prototype of that statue which is in southern Texas near Brownsville)

Iwo Jima itself. I was stationed at VFA-192 which is an FA-18 Squadron out of Atsugi, Japan. We deployed (at the time) on the USS Midway then the USS Independence. I was on a shore detachment on Iwo Jima for a couple of weeks while our pilots did landings and takeoffs. It is run by the Japanese Navy as we gave back the island years ago. It can be very scary at night, standing there looking out and thinking of all the people who died there.

Did you climb to the top of Mt. Suribachi? Is there anything up there to memorialize the famous photo?

Here is this weeks survey for Pearl Harbor Day:

1. Being Browns fans, we believe the best helmet logo is no logo. Nevertheless, that being said, which other team's helmet logo do you think is the best?

2. Who do you think should win the Heisman Trophy this year? Suh

3. Do you think either of the 12-0 teams, New Orleans or Indy, will finish undefeated. they shouldn't, but they might. (thanks Washington) this S*** is rigged sometimes

4. It has been revealed that Tiger Woods has had 4-5-6 mistresses. The question is: Do you think mankind is inherently monogamous, or not?

i think we are NOT monogamous by nature, but i didn't need Tiger to tell me that.

5. In tribute to the events of 68 years ago, what is the most stirring patriotic place you have ever visited?

The Gipper's Top Ten most Patriotic Places in America. (that I have visited, and I have visited most well known places):

1. Fort McHenry, Baltimore Maryland

2. The Arizona Memorial/USS Missouri, Pearl Harbor, Hawaii

3. All Washington DC monuments and memorial including Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, Washington Monument, WWII Memorial, Vietnam Memorial, Korean War Memorial, Arlington Cemetery, Iwo Jima Memorial, White House, Capitol, FDR Memorial, etc. etc. etc.

4. The Battle Road, from Lexington to Concord to Boston

5. Mount Rushmore, South Dakota

8. The Alamo San Antonio Texas

9. Yorktown/Jamestown Virginia

10. Perry Victory and Peace Memorial, Put In Bay, Ohio

*I did not include 9/11 Ground Zero as that monument is not yet completed. It could certainly ultimately make the list.

** I didn't include any of the Civil War Battle sites. I have been to many and numerous, and though they are all interesting and moving, they all seem to be very similar in their presentation such that I could not put any one above the others.

[dj_illness]

i think at one of the Smithsonian sites, they actually have the original flag that flew at Ft. McHenry.

they play the anthem and show the flag like every 30 mins or something.

pretty darn cool.

The Texas Iwo Jima Memorial:

Harlingen, Texas - Iwo Jima War Memorial

At the base of the statue, Harlon Block is buried. Harlon Block was one of the original flag raisers on that fateful day. South Texas is Harlon's birth home

Followed closely by the third worst helmet ever, the Steelers with the dumb-looking US steel corporate logo on one side and nothing on the other. For chrissakes, commit to a logo or not. And the colors in th elogo don't even match their uniform colors (which for the record are black and yellow, not gold. Here's gold:

Zombo

that was done for a reason other than just to piss you off. it's because steel is only stamped on one side. i think the logo on one side is kind of cool because it has a meaning. it's just not random.
