The Sinking of USS Indianapolis\n\nThe USS Indianapolis (CA-35) was commissioned at the Philadelphia Navy Yard on 15 November 1932. The ship served with honor from Pearl Harbor through the last campaign of World War II, sinking in action two weeks before the end of the war. On 30 July 1945, while sailing from Guam to Leyte, Indianapolis was torpedoed by Japanese submarine I-58. The ship capsized and sank in twelve minutes. Survivors were spotted by a patrol aircraft on 2 August. All air and surface units capable of rescue operations were dispatched to the scene at once, and the surrounding waters were thoroughly searched for survivors. Upon completion of the day and night search on 8 August, 316 men were rescued out of the crew of 1,199.\n\nFor a good account of this event, watch the movie Jaws.\nRichard Harris (Quint) tells the story GREAT.

The main reason given to the american people was the sinking oo the lousitania however that seems strange since that vessel was sunk two years prior to entering war.The usa was not happy with german naval activity in her area The loss of american lives at sea due to submarine attack.

I cannot find anywhere where they actually say they found out what caused them to die.  One possibility was that sonar used by an american naval ship threw them off course.  \n\nI'm guessing...due to lack of interest in the results...that that might be the case because if it were anything else, I think the results would be posted everywhere!

Oh my god, it totally slipped my mind how Iraq bombed Pearl Harbor!  They probably sank the Maine in San Juan harbor, too.

There was one and only one US Marine killed during Operation Just Cause (Panama Invasion). CPL Garreth C. Isaak, 2nd Marine Division, from Greenville SC. I don't recall his name being featured in Black Hawk Down, but I guess it is possible, though as one poster pointed out that would be a bit odd. (Why would a Marine's name from an invasion of Panama nearly a decade earlier be part of a movie about an Army Operation half a world away?). P.S. If you know why this was done - please e-mail me, I am very curious. Sounds like one of those great pieces of trivia I can unload on my friends - :-)

You could try the MOD also a white star ships are listed The records should be available for public release if there not they should be able to tell you why and when they will be.\n\nYou could also try Liverpool maritime museme as they have information on white star ships.

The Imperial War Museum has a wealth of information about people who served in the war.\n\nIt may be a good place to start - http://www.iwm.org.uk/server/show/nav.001008\nhttp://www.iwm.org.uk
