Story behind vet's rifle brings Iwo Jima to life :: 02/23/2014
Ray Alcorn came home from Iwo Jima in 1945 with two World War II souvenirs.
One was a V-shaped chunk missing from his left ear, courtesy of a Japanese bayonet.
The other was the Arisaka rifle to which that bayonet was affixed.
This story has a decidedly local flavor. You can see Alcorn's rifle at Soldiers and Sailors hall.
