The Second Watch Organization, in honor of the 70th Anniversary of the Sinking, has also begun a flag program for those Lost At Sea. We are flying a flag over the USS Indianapolis Memorial in Indianapolis each day in that particular sailors memory. It is then lowered the next morning and sent to the family. If you would like more information about having a flag flown in your loved ones memory, feel free to contact me at BullardMBullard@aol.com or via the Facebook group "USS Indianapolis CA-35 Second Watch"
Here is a recent article from the Indy Star Newspaper about the flags:
