This month marks the 70th anniversary of the American invasion of Iwo Jima, one of the deadliest battles in the Pacific during World War II. Producer Danielle Thomsen recently spoke with a survivor of that battle, 88 year old Paul Milam. Milam recalls his impressions of Iwo Jima as an inexperienced 19-year-old from Bozeman, Montana.
