I believe (working from memory away back!) that there were two versions of
the photo. The original was not posed, but also was not as dramatic. I
believe the hill on which the flag was raised was still contested at the time
of the first shot, and was lost and retaken between the first and second
(posed) shot, but again, I might be mistaken.
