RUANE The Washington Post ONA, W.Va. he Japanese soldiers came out of their concrete “pill box” with bay- onets fixed, determined to get the TMarine who had been killing them all afternoon with a flamethrower. Their target was Hershel Williams. He was 5-foot-6, the youngest of the 11 chil- dren of a dairy farmer from Quiet Dell, W.Va. He had a nice smile, and a girl back home named Ruby whom he planned to marry when the war was over. He was 21 and known as “Woody.” But 75 years ago this month, on a Godfor- saken volcanic island in the Pacific called Iwo Jima, he was a terrifying destroyer of the Japanese, incinerating men in their hideouts with jets of blazing diesel fuel and high octane gasoline. They had to stop him. But he saw them coming, and pulled the two triggers on his fearsome weapon. SEE INFERNO ON PAGE 4 Photographs on display at the home of Hershel “Woody” Williams show images of the Marine veteran today and in 1945.
