My grandfather lost his childhood friend Robert Hammen on the Indianapolis.We have letters and photos that Robert Hammen sent to him on that last fatefull trip.Robert talked about the bad feeling he had about that trip.Recently my grandfather passed away but he never forgot his dear friend.My family is very interested in finding anything out about this man we have heard so much about over the years,and would also love to talk to anyone who was there that might remember him. Thank you, The Gerlach family
