In the lounge at the moment, there is a thread I started titled "The Pacific". In the post by Lee in Quartsite is a link to photos of Iwo Jima. If you go through them, and it's quite the worthwhile link to those of you interested in these things, you will find a captioned photo (shown here as well as in "The Pacific" thread) of the Colonel Phil Maher -- former American Consul here in San Miguel and mentioned various times during this thread -- as a Lieutenant on Iwo Jima.

The entire series of photos, as I mentioned, are worth a look. Maher is the guy 3rd from the left, pointing at the map.
