the historical inaccuracies in this movie are ludicrous. we were not going broke fighting ww2. our navy and marine commanders were by and large thoughtful and caring men. the treasury department people in charge of the war bonds were nothing like those portrayed in the movie. the battle scenes shown are designed to horrify, not truly tell the story of what happened on iwo jima. there were a lot of heroes at iwo jima, not all dead on the field of battle. this movie seems to have been written by someone who wants to strip all nobility from warriors, and to denigrate any american authority figure from that time period. a lot of time and care went into this movie, unfortunately, in the service of anti-american propaganda. what in the world has happened to clint?
