What started as a veteran’s reunion organization over 20 years ago has evolved into an organization that seeks to educate future generations and keep the memory of Iwo Jima alive. Iwo Jima will remain one of the most awe-inspiring battles in history.

“Reunion of Honor”Anniversary Return Tour to Iwo Jima – 26 February – 5 March 2010 – Guam and Iwo Jima

The Iwo Jima Association of America works cooperatively with its Japanese counterpart, the Iwo Jima Association of Japan (IJAJ) to provide the means and opportunity for veterans, families, and historians of both countries, to join annually for a “Reunion of Honor” on their former battleground, the :”Black Sands” of Iwo Jima. The joint memorial services in essence say “Once enemies, now friends, may we never experience such a wasteful loss of life again.” Both organizations are determined to pass the torch of friendship to younger generations – to keep the prayer of “Never again” alive.
