"You could see the sharks
circling. Then every now and then, like lightning, one would come straight up
and take a sailor and take him straight down."
On July 30, 1945, the USS
Indianapolis was traveling through the Philippine Sea on its way back from
completing a crucial mission: delivering the components of the atomic bomb that
was about to be dropped on Hiroshima.
But just after midnight, a Japanese submarine
sank the ship and left nearly 900 survivors stranded in the water — which was
infested with sharks. Over the course of the next four days, the helpless
sailors bobbed in the water as untold swarms of sharks took them under one by
one. When it was over, only 316 men came out of the water.
