Detailed item info
Synopsis
This World War II account of survival at sea also raises questions of military justice. The USS Indianapolis was torpedoed by the Japanese after it had delivered a top secret cargo that was later revealed to be elements of one of the bombs dropped on Japan. The crew abandoned ship and endured a five-day ordeal in open sea before the survivors were rescued. The captain of the ship, Charles McVay, was court-martialed. Questions have been raised about the Navy's delay in the crew's rescue, and about whether the captain was a scapegoat. McVay later committed suicide, and many in his crew spent years trying to have his name cleared. He was exonerated in the 2001 National Defense Authorization Act.

Industry reviews
Many survivors of the attack believe that McVay was innocent...and they have organized campaigns to have his record cleared. This has been supported by vote of Congress, but the Navy itself remains adamant. Perhaps Stanton's vivid account of the ordeal of the Indianapolis will compel the Navy to examine the matter again, since the book seems likely to find many readers and stir strong emotions...."
