Bloodless Carnage | |
| Sands of Iwo Jima / int_135b9977 | comment |
Bloodless Carnage: As you would expect in a 1940s-era movie, there's very little blood even when soldiers get hit by machine-gun fire or stabbed with bayonets. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Sands of Iwo Jima / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Stryker is unceremoniously killed during the Battle of Iwo Jima, with the other Marines briefly mourning his loss. However, the Battle of Iwo Jima itself, and by extension, the War in the Pacific, will inevitably be won by the Americans, with the Iwo Jima flag raising establishing this. | |

| Sands of Iwo Jima / int_6eb4e408 | comment |
Artistic License – Military: Marine Corps sergeants do not strike or physically abuse their men, as Stryker does with Pvt. Choynski and later with Pfc. Thomas. US Marine Corps regulations specifically forbid noncommissioned officers from striking an enlisted man. | |
