On board, photographer Joe Rosenthal learns on the radio that a patrol went to hoist the starry banner of the United States to the top of the volcano on the island. On the ground,
accompanied by another photographer, Bob Campbell, he climbs Mount Suribachi. On the way, the two men met four soldiers, including Sergeant-Photographer Lou Lowery of Leatherneck, Marine magazine, who told them that he had just photographed raising the flag. At the top, Rosenthal notes that the first flag is replaced by another larger, more visible from afar. Bob Campbell photographs the scene. Rosenthal then asks the Marines to regroup at the foot of the flag and take two more shots. He immortalized five US marines and a naval nurse (two soldiers are hidden behind the group) raising the flag of the United States.
