    Carol Fleisher, left, speaks to Tsuruji Akikusa, during the 70th annual Reunion of Honor March 21 on Iwo Jima, Japan. Akikusa is one of the last Japanese defenders of Iwo Jima. Akikusa was wounded while in the tunnels of Iwo Jima and captured by the United States. “I was captured by the United States, but when I was I didn’t feel captured I felt saved,” said Akikusa. Akikusa from Tokyo, Japan, is a veteran of World War II. Fleisher is from Durango, Colorado, and is a documentary film maker. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Devon Tindle/Released)
