As a veteran, I am outraged by Time Magazine’s desecration of Joe Rosenthal's famous photograph of the U.S. Marines raising the American Flag on Iwo Jima.

Crossposted from Red Maryland I heard on the news the other day, that some Marines are pissed and that the Time Magazine editor sees nothing wrong on the evocative Joe Rosenthal image photo-shopping, hijacking the symbolic heroism that is burned in the psyche of every red-blooded American. “It’s an absolute disgrace.
