General Tadamichi Kuribayashi (栗林 忠道, Kuribayashi Tadamichi, 7 July 1891 – c. 26 March 1945) was a general in the Imperial Japanese Army, part-time writer, haiku poet, diplomat, and commanding officer of the Imperial Japanese Army General Staff. He is best known for having been the overall commander of the Japanese garrison during the Battle of Iwo Jima. Even before the battle, General Kuribayashi insisted upon sharing the hardships of his men. He also refused to permit banzai charges, which he regarded as an unnecessary waste of his men's lives. The United States Marine Corps had expected to capture Iwo Jima in five days, but Kuribayashi and his men held out for 36 days. It is believed that Kuribayashi was killed in action in the final assault, but his body was never identified by the United States military. In the 2006 film Letters from Iwo Jima, which depicts the Battle of Iwo Jima from the perspective of the Japanese soldiers, Kuribayashi is portrayed by Japanese actor Ken Watanabe.

Huey Pierce Long Jr. (August 30, 1893 – September 10, 1935), nicknamed "The Kingfish," was an American politician who served as the 40th governor of Louisiana from 1928 to 1932 and as a member of the United States Senate from 1932 until his assassination in 1935. A member of the Democratic Party, he rose to national prominence during the Great Depression, attacking the New Deal from the left. As the political leader of Louisiana, he commanded wide networks of supporters and was willing to take forceful action. He established the long-term political dominance and dynasty of the Long family. Celebrated as a populist benefactor, or conversely denounced as a fascistic demagogue, Long remains a controversial figure. Long was born in the poor north of Louisiana 1893. After working as a traveling salesman and attending multiple colleges, Long earned his law degree from Tulane University Law School. After a private legal career, in which he protected workers against corporations, Long was elected to the Louisiana Public Service Commission. As Commissioner, Long often prosecuted large corporations, such as Standard Oil. After successfully arguing before the US Supreme Court, Chief Justice William Howard Taft praised Long as "the most brilliant lawyer who ever practiced before the United States Supreme Court." After a failed 1924 campaign, Long was elected Governor of Louisiana in 1928. He was impeached in 1929, but acquitted by the Louisiana Senate. During Long's years in power, he gained major state expansion in investments in infrastructure, education, and health care. A populist, Long was notable among southern politicians for avoiding race baiting and white supremacy. He sought to improve the conditions of impoverished blacks as well as impoverished whites. Under Long's leadership, hospitals and educational institutions were expanded, a system of charity hospitals was set up that provided health care for the poor, and massive highway construction and free bridges brought an end to rural isolation. A Democrat and an outspoken left-leaning populist, Long denounced the wealthy urban Baton Rouge and D.C. elites, oligarchs, and the banks. Long helped President Franklin D. Roosevelt secure his nomination and was a supporter through his first 100 days in office. However, Long split with Roosevelt in June 1933 and became a prominent critic of his New deal programs. As an alternative, he proposed his "Share Our Wealth" program on February 23, 1934. To stimulate the economy, Long advocated massive federal spending, a wealth tax, and mass wealth redistribution. Poised to perform well in a presidential bid for 1936, Long was assassinated in 1935. Although originally blamed on a lone assassin, many now believe Long was accidentally shot by his own bodyguards. Although Long's movement soon faded, Roosevelt adopted many of Long's proposals in the Second New Deal. In Louisiana, Long permanently altered the political landscape. Elections would be organized along anti- or pro-Long factions into the 1960s. He also produced the Long dynasty, which includes his wife, Senator Rose McConnell Long, appointed as US Senator; his son, Senator Russell B. Long, elected as US Senator; and his brothers, Earl Kemp Long, elected as governor, and George S. Long, elected as U.S. Representative. Several more distant relatives also showed his influence, including U.S. Representative Gillis William Long.
