We look back at a GREAT episode of ALL MARINE RADIO — amateur Irish historian Stephen Foley was the catalyst that brought the issue of “The Unknown Flag Raiser of Iwo Jima” to the light of day. Stephen joined Mac to recount his initial observation & feelings that there was an error in the identities of the second Flag Raisers, discovered while he was on disability leave, recovering from surgery with plenty of time to devote to his hobby of USMC World War II history and Iwo Jima history specifically. A noble researcher and gentleman, Stephen Foley is a wonderful interview and his story is now an incredible piece of Marine Corps history.
