As the 69th anniversary of the sinking of the heavy cruiser USS Indianapolis draws near, please take a moment to reflect on the crew of 1200 men who served their country proudly and especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Only 317 men survived to tell the story of this historic ship--36 are living today. Please join these World War II veterans as they remember and honor their lost shipmates, those who perished in 1945 and those who have passed since the sinking.
The reunion will take place July 24-27, 2014 at the Hyatt Regency, Indianapolis. For your convenience, we have created a web site for the USS Indianapolis Survivors Organization reunion. We hope you will find this information useful as you plan your visit to Indianapolis.
