Harold Keller

Harold Keller (Aug 3 1921-March 13 1979) Harold “Pie” Paul Keller, son of Byron Paul Keller and Ruth Hendrickson Keller Belland, was born on August 3, 1921, near Brooklyn, Iowa. He received his education in the Brooklyn School graduating from the Brooklyn High School. Mr. Keller served with the United States Marine Corps from January 6, 1942 to September 19, 1945. He was united in marriage to Ruby O’Halloran in the home of her parents near Hartwick, Iowa, on March 2, 1944.

This month Oct 2019, the Marine Corps confirmed that it has long misidentified one of the men in Joe Rosenthal's iconic picture from the island of Iwo Jima, after Spence and other historians submitted a PowerPoint of evidence. It wasn't the first error. Three years ago, the Marines acknowledged another mistake, and false IDs have plagued a second image from the Feb. 23, 1945, flag-raising on Japan's Mount Suribachi, too.

Both the Marines and the FBI's Digital Evidence Laboratory worked to confirm the latest "opportunity to expand on the historical record," the Marine Corps told NBC News in a statement — the revelation that Cpl. Harold "Pie" Keller rather than Pfc. Rene Gagnon is pictured in Rosenthal's shot.
