Vancouver,WA : Researchers locate wreck of USS Indianapolis on August, Sunday 20th 2017

Civilian researchers say they have located the wreck of the USS Indianapolis, the World War II heavy cruiser that played a critical role in the atomic bombing of Hiroshima before being struck by Japanese torpedoes.

The sinking of the Indianapolis remains the Navy's single worst loss at sea. The fate of its crew -- nearly 900 were killed, many by sharks, and just 316 survived -- was one of the Pacific war's more horrible and fascinating tales.
