February 23, 1945, Marines Raise the Flag on Mount Suribachi Share This: Photos: USMC On  February 23, 1945, World War II was continuing to rage across the globe. In Europe, brutal winter fighting continued as Germany was being squeezed from two sides: in the west by the Americans and British, who had recovered from the German offensive during the Battle of the Bulge, and in the east by the Russians.  In the Pacific, the Japanese were putting up fanatical resistance in the Philippines and elsewhere.
