ormer U.S. soldier fighting on Iwo Jima during the World War II, Franklin Hobbs, right, and Chie Takekawa, whose father was killed in the same battle, hold a framed letter and a photo of her sister during a press conference at the Foreign Correspondents Club of Japan in Tokyo, Thursday, Oct. 28, 2010. The faded photograph of a baby Japanese girl and colorful drawing of an air raid drill were quietly stored away in the home of Franklin Hobbs III. As a 21-year-old American GI fighting on Iwo Jima, one of the bloodiest battles of World War II, Hobbs found them in the chest pocket of a fallen Japanese soldier and took them home as a souvenir.
