A Cropped Version
From www.history.navy.mil/ :

The first flag, measuring 54x28 inches, was obtained from attack transport USS Missoula (APA-211), and raised on a 20-foot section of pipe at 10:20 a.m.

Several hours later, an 8-foot-long battle ensign, obtained from tank landing ship LST-779, was raised, resulting in Associated Press photographer Joe Rosenthal's famous photograph of the flag raising.

When Marines raised the flag on Mount Suribachi, Navajo Code Talkers relayed the message with the Navajo words for: Sheep - Uncle - Ram - Ice - Bear - Ant - Cat - Horse - Itch. (Code Talker Page)

This photograph inspired the bronze monument to the Marine Corps by Felix de Welden located near Arlington National Cemetery.
