Iwo Jima was the only battle by the U.S. Marine Corps in which the overall American casualties (killed and wounded) exceeded those of the Japanese, although Japanese combat deaths were thrice those of the Americans throughout the battle.he Americans on the ground were supported by extensive naval artillery, and by the complete supremacy in the air over Iwo Jima commanded from the beginning of the battle by U.S. Navy and Marine Corps aviators.
