Harold Henry Schultz (January 28, 1925 – May 16, 1995) was a United States Marine corporal who helped raise the second U.S.
flag (a replacement flag) on top of Mount Suribachi on February 23, 1945, during the Battle of Iwo Jima in World War II. The Marine Corps announced on June 23, 2016, that Schultz is one of the flag-raisers in Joe Rosenthal's iconic photograph Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima.
The Marine Corps also stated after reviewing the identities of the six second-flag-raisers in the photograph that former Navy corpsman John Bradley who was thought to be in the photo since April 1945, was not.
Schultz is the second flag-raiser in the photograph who was not originally identified as one.
In 1947, after a Marine Corps investigation, it was determined that Corporal Harlon Block was in the photograph.
The Marine Corps War Memorial in Arlington, Virginia, depicts the second flag-raising on Mount Suribachi by six Marines.
