We're joined by Beth Parker, whose grandfather was in the military during the battle of Iwo Jima. Not only did he fight in the battle, he was brave enough to take a camera with him and document the story.

You forget how young these men were...fighting for our country. We also speak with Gary Grzesk, Head Coach of St. Norbert's Men's Basketball.
