Answer 1

600

Step-by-step explanation:

Only 600 marines in Major Fred Hayes' group survived the Battle of Iwo Jima. The Battle of Iwo Jima took place in the island of the same name from February 19-March 26, 1945. The battle was one of the bloodiest of the Pacific theatre of World War II. The island was not particularly strategic for the United States, which led to some controversy regarding the battle.

Answer 2

Only 600 were left standing in what was one of the costliest battles in the pacific front. The japanese were the most affected with heavy casualties and suicide cases.
