Who’da Thunk It?
Last year, I posted a blog here about my father for Memorial Day. You can read it in the May 2015 blog post. It described my father’s story about a chance encounter with the U.S.S. Indianapolis with his group on their way to the Philippines during World War II. As a result, this happened to be a new piece of information that would help pinpoint where the Indianapolis was sunk.
If interested you can read about this in the following articles:

There is also a blockbuster movie coming out in Sept/Oct of 2016 starring Nicholas Cage as Captain Charles McVay III.
