I remember the very first time that I saw the picture from Iwo Jima.  I wasn’t old enough to know the ramifications of that shot, but knew that it sparked something inside of me.  The crazy thing is that it is known as The Picture That Sparked A Nation.  I would grow up learning so much more about that, and eventually reading The Flags of our Fathers and really understanding more of the significance of that photo.  It’s crazy to think of all the things that went into our freedom, but even more so that on a regular basis flags are going up in our honor.
