Flags of Our Fathers is a The New York Times bestselling book by James Bradley with Ron Powers about the six United States marines who would eventually be made famous by Joe Rosenthal's lauded photograph of the 1945 U.S. flag raising over Iwo Jima, one of the costliest and most horrifying battles of World War II's Pacific Theater. The flag raisers were Harold Henry Schultz, Harold "Pie" Keller, Ira Hamilton Hayes, Michael Strank, Harlon Henry Block, and Franklin Runyon Sousley; the latter three men were killed later in the battle. Strank was a sergeant who refused a promotion to staff sergeant before the battle in order to "Bring his boys back to their mothers." Block was a corporal who reported to Strank, as was Keller, and the rest were privates first class.
