Accidents do happen, but one wouldn't expect it from such a "prepared" force. Would this strong force allow itself to have flaky technology ? Wouldn't it have all sorts of tests to make sure that there's no faulty equipment? Nonetheless...accidents can happen.

Honestly, I didn't know what Iwo Jima was so I googled it. It's the sight where Americans and Japanese fought in 1945. But what does that have to do with this ?
