A friend of mine sent me this link.  Some of the history buffs may find these pictures interesting.

Good photos, but whoever did the captions contradicts themselves a number of times.  It appears, from the captions, that Iwo Jima is either 660 or 750 miles from Japan.  Also, in a photo depicting ground zero of Nagasaki the day after the blast, I wonder that there are plants growing already.

Good pics, though.
