Iwo Jima is significant because of WWII's Battle Of Iwo Jima. The island was of value to the U.S. from a strategic standpoint. They were already taking over a good portion of the Pacific theater, and Iwo Jima was a step closer to the main islands of Japan. In Imperial Japan's eyes, the loss of the island signaled that their defeat was close at hand.

During D-Day, in 1944, General Norman Cota went up to a Ranger battalion and asked the CO, Major Max Scheider, what outfit it was. Schneider replied that it was the 5th Rangers. \n\nCota yelled the famous words, "Well goddamnit then, Rangers lead the way!" Then the Rangers charged, followed by the other Army guys.\n\nAlthough in my opinion, if there had been some Marines on that beach there wouldnt be any need to call for Rangers. Too bad the Marines were busy island-hopping.\n\nThis is the motto of the US Army Rangers.
