English: Iwo Jima, Japan (July 7, 2004) – Its U.S. military tradition for service members visiting Iwo Jima to carve their name in the soft sand stone rock formation, at the site of a carving, of the famous Mount Suribachi flag raising. The 555-foot Mount Suribachi housed a seven-story interior structure used by the Japanese for stockpiling weapons, ammo, radios, fuel, and rations. It was captured on February 23, 1945 when seven Marines raised the American flag on the summit, immortalized by photographer Joseph Rosenthal's famous photograph.

It is tradition for military members visiting Iwo Jima to carve their name in the soft sand stone rock formation that is the site of a Carving of the famous Mt. Suribachi flag raising. The Japanese government is hosting members of Carrier Air Wing Five for two weeks of training on an 'interim' air field on the island of Iwo Jima. "The air wing can't conduct the everyday training in the main island of Japan that other air wings can in the U.S.," said Lieutenant Commander Mark Moore, Iwo Jima det coordinator. Once completed, more than 800 sailors would have come through this historic island. According to Moore, each pilot from the air wing must get qualified on carrier landings before embarking on USS Kitty Hawk (CV-63) and Iwo Jima offers just that opportunity to accomplish this training in a timely manner.
