Sorry missed the point on Ira Hayes.

Yes I have seen the photo of the four or five soldiers raising the flag. Never thought much about it until I heard the Ballad of Ira Hayes.

Something like "poor old Ira Hayes drowned in the water on the side of the road"...:confused: "..drunked Ira Hayes".. it goes on".. "American Indian who volunteered...."

Interesting bit of history that I did not know about, until I picked up the Johnny Cash album from my parents. This was after watching the Johnny Cash story "Walk the Line"



It was a very good DVD.
