Following the capture of Iwo Jima in March 1945, US Seabees moved in to rebuild facilities on the island.
In these two shots, Seabees with the 31st Naval Construction Battalion are building a road on the side of Mt. Suribachi - the very mountain where the famous photograph of six Marines raising the US flag was taken.
