•  Support Iconic picture, good quality. -- Yann (talk) 18:54, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support Photos just don't come more iconic than this. (Perhaps with the exception of Guerrillero Heroico, which is also not an FP yet AFAICS.) --Cart (talk) 19:24, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support An image so iconic they made a statue of the scene (which was staged, but we'll gloss over that). Is this the best version of it that exists on Commons?--Peulle (talk) 21:04, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Support - Seems best on Commons. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:09, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

•  Support Of course. -- Sixflashphoto (talk) 02:42, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
•  Comment Is there documentation somewhere for this photo being public domain? If the copyright was renewed, would there definitely be an individual entry for this particular photo or is it possible that it could have been some kind of bulk renewal of AP photos? I'm just a little cautious with accepting without documentation that nobody bothered to renew the copyright on the most iconic photo of all time. --B (talk) 17:50, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

• There have been looong and extensive discussions about this. See Commons:Deletion requests/File:Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima.png and Commons:Undeletion requests/Archive/2018-08#Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima. Regards, Yann (talk) 07:20, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
