Resumen:
Segunda Guerra Mundial (1939-1945). La batalla de Iwo Jima (1945), el episodio más cruento de la guerra del Pacífico, quedó inmortalizada en la foto de unos soldados que izaban una bandera norteamericana. El objetivo de esta batalla era la toma de un islote insignificante, pero de gran valor estratégico, pues desde allí los japoneses defendían su territorio. En la contienda cayeron más de 20.000 japoneses y 7.000 estadounidenses. Mientras tanto, en los Estados Unidos la célebre foto en la que seis soldados izaban la bandera americana fue un instrumento propagandístico para conseguir fondos que permitieran seguir sufragando los gastos de la guerra. El mismo año el propio Eastwood dirigió "Cartas desde Iwo Jima", que narra la misma batalla desde el punto de vista japonés.
