About his 1945 Pulitzer Prize-winning photo of soldiers lifting the flag, what famed photographer said "I took the picture, the Marines took Iwo Jima"?

Joe Rosenthal's photo of the Marines raising the flag at Iwo Jima was turned into a sculpture 9 years later by sculptor Felix de Weldon. The committee that awarded Rosenthal the Pulitzer Prize called the photo "depicting one of the war's great moments," and "frozen flash of history".
