USS Indianapolis (CA-35) is the Portland Class Warship of the 5th Fleet of the US Navy.
The USS Indianapolis, which departed in July 1945, under the Admiral Raymond Spruance control, handed over the critical parts of the "Little Boy", the first atomic bomb thrown into Japan in the US Air Base in Tinian on the North Mariana Islands. Then he set out for the Philippines.
At 30 July 1945, at 00:15, the ship is noticed by the B3 type submarine "I-58" of the Japanese Empire Navy under Mochitsura Hashimoto, and a 2 torpedo is fired to one stern. USS Indianapolis sank within 12 minutes. Approximately 300 of the 1195 crew on the ship sank with the ship. The remaining 890 sailors faced a few lifeguards in the open ocean and almost without food or water, with dehydration, salty water poisoning and shark attacks. Only 316 people survived.
Due to the fact that his duty was very confidential, the viewer information was not reported to any base. The navy learned to sink only four days later by the recognition of those who survived by a "PV-1 Ventura" crew who patrolled routine. The Sink of the USS Indianapolis resulted in the largest loss of life from a single ship in the history of the US navy.
Captain Charles B. McVay III, one of the survivors, was proclaimed in an interesting way after the rescue and was tried in court and found guilty. In 1968, upon the death of his wife, he committed suicide with the principality pistol.
On August 19, 2017, a search team financed by Microsoft's founding partner Paul Allen found the wreck of the wrecking cruiser in the Philippine Sea at a depth of approximately 18,000 ft (5,500 m). On December 20, 2018, the Congress Gold Medal was given to the USS Indianapolis crew.
