    The sinking of the USS Indianapolis was one of America’s greatest naval tragedies as the Indianapolis was one of the flagship ships of the navy at the time as well as one of the fastest. On July 30th of 1945, at 4 minutes past midnight, on the route between Guam and Leyte Gulf, known as “Convoy Route Peddie,” the ship was hit by two of the six torpedoes that were fired at it by the I-58, a Japanese submarine.
