| Can you hear me now?  | Post; Iwo JimaHello, I'm curious if I can visit on Iwo Jima? I heard it's for US and Japanese military personnel and family members who frought on Iwo Jima in 1945 only. (correct me if I'm mistake) Well, my great uncle frought on Iwo Jima. So, how can I visit Iwo Jima? I know it is Japan's Radar Defence System. Thanks. (Mods, if I put it in wrong place. Please feel free to move it someplace.)

| Godfather | I'm guessing you need permission from the Jap government since they own it. |
