Answer: An American Flag being placed in Iwo Jima uses symbolism to commemorate and document and narrate all by placing a flag because it signifies that America has won.

Explanation:This basically means that when a flag is place by the other or opposing team it signifies that the other team has conquered or forced the other team to forfeit and this flag is used a symbol to show it and by doing that it marks history and indirectly narrates the event.
