Six soldiers hoisted the flag in that famous photo at Iwo Jima. That's twelve hands, 6 pairs of hands. But if you were to look carefully at the bronze statue in Washington D.C., you would count 13 hands raising the flag. When the artist was asked about this, he replied simply, "the thirteenth is the Hand of God".
