A Special Salute To Those Who Served
It’s one of the most iconic images of World War II, a group of five United States Marines and a United States Navy corpsman, raising the American flag atop Mount Suribachi on the Japanese island of Iwo Jima. This month, dozens of United States veterans made the journey back to that same island, marking the 70th anniversary of one of the most iconic battles of World War II. I’m once again calling on people to nominate those who have served to the New York State Senate’s “Veterans’ Hall of Fame.”
