“Earlier in the morning Company A, 1st Battalion, 5th Marines had attacked eastward into the ruins of Shuri Castle and had raised the Confederate flag. When we learned that the flag of the Confederacy had been hoisted over the very heart and soul of Japanese resistance, all of us Southerners cheered loudly. The Yankees among us grumbled, and the Westerners didn’t know what to do. Later we learned that the Stars and Stripes that had flown over Guadalcanal were raised over Shuri Castle, a fitting tribute to the men of the 1st Marine Division who had the honor of being first into the Japanese citadel.” WarJapanWorld War IiWorld War 2PacificConfederateOkinawaConfederate FlagSouthernersFlagNorthernersStars And StripesShuriU S Flag Book:With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa Source: With the Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa
