About this listen

The island of Iwo Jima was the epic land and sea battle that produced one of the iconic images of WWII: the Marines raising the American flag on Mount Surabachi, an active volcano that was the site of intense hand to hand combat. In this gripping novel, P. T. Deutermann follows a young gunnery liaison officer, Lee Bishop, who during the ferocious battle for the island is pulled from his station aboard the USS Nevada to serve onshore as a spotter, calling in coordinates for the ship to target with missiles.

But Bishop is completely unready for what he will witness and experience: a literal hell, during which 26,000 Americans are killed in a fight to the very last man, which culminates in the blistering, sulfurous tunnels of Surabachi itself, where an entire platoon of Marines is held captive. Iwo, 26 Charlie is a dramatic, utterly authentic novel by an award-winning writer.

Excellent but not suitable for listening in a car

The story was excellent. I enjoyed the reader’s performance but it was marred by the recording engineer’s failure to use compression to compensate for the reader’s almost whispers followed by full voice. Impossible to listen to with ambient noise.

The complexity of battle.

This book painted a detailed explanation of the role artillery plays in battle. The human toll war exacts from individuals on and behind the front line is brought into sharp focus.

Great story. Narrator not so much

Always a great story from PT,

This narrator was abysmal. Every sentence spoken with overly dramatic running out of breath. It got really annoying .

The hard truth about the men who fought at Iwo.

It was all good. A captivating story that was well presented and well told by the reader.

Intense

As a retired Naval officer I found this story exciting and a fun trip down memory lane. The details are spot on and as a prior weapons officer found the spotter’s call for fire from off shore gun ships very nostalgic. The narrator did a fine job. Buy it is worth your time.
