World War II (1939-1945). The battle of Iwo Jima (1945), the most bloody episode of the Pacific War, was immortalized in the photo of some soldiers raised an American flag. The objective of this battle was the taking of an insignificant islet, but of great strategic value, since from there the Japanese defended their territory. In the contest more than 20,000 Japanese and 7,000 Americans fell. Meanwhile, in the United States the famous photo in which six soldiers raised the American flag was a propaganda instrument to achieve funds that allowed to continue suffering the expenses of the war. The same year Eastwood himself directed '' Letters from Iwo Jima '', which tells the same battle from the Japanese point of view. (FILMAFFINITY)
