Yes, I didn't realize the book you were speaking of was the thread title. I was in hurry reading the post and missed some important aspects of your post, such as "written by one of the men in the platoon" and "raised the
original flag on Mt. Suribachi"
Is this book you were referring to?
Amazon.com: The Bloody Battle for Suribachi (Bluejacket Books): Books: Richard Wheeler
Apologies all around.
