Fallout Re: MBT's

Can't find the original discussion point from early last month, it might even be in this thread. Anyway the verdict is in concerning the second and most famous photo of the flag raising over IWO JIMA. In short the new claims made in the last few years and the forensic evidence shows that HM John Bradley USN was not at or in that picture (However he is positively identified as being in the first flag raising and picture of that event.) but, that Harold Schultz USMC was. The article speaks for itself.
