Based on the book by James Bradley with Ron Powers.

The story of the five Marines and one Navy corpsman that were forever immortalized as a symbol of WWII by raising the American flag at the battle of Iwo Jima. When Joe Rosenthal's photograph of the event becomes a symbol of hope for the families at home, the three surviving men are pulled from combat and sent on a tour across America to raise desperately-needed bond money. It is a trip that brings out the truths of both that symbolic act, and of their lives during war.

flags of fathers submitted by hcf on July 30, 2014, 4:03pm wow what a cast. what a movie
Not as good as other Movies directed by CLint submitted by Tassos on December 31, 2018, 8:23am Very disappointing to waste two hours on the anecdotal story of three or five individuals, and miss the whole big picture of Iwo Jima.
