Navy Ship Delivered Atomic Bomb Then Sank With 1200 Men

[00:00:00]In July [music] 1945, the USS Indianapolis completed the most secret mission in [music] naval history. They delivered the uranium that would destroy Hiroshima. Days later, a Japanese submarine [music] sent them to the bottom of the Pacific. 900 men hit the water. No distress signal [music] went out. For 5 days, they floated in shark-infested waters. The predators came at night, dragging screaming sailors [music] into the depths. Men drank salt water and went insane. They attacked each other, believing their friends were Japanese [music] spies.

[00:00:31]When rescue finally came, only 317 were still alive. The Navy buried the truth for decades.
