  • Summary

  • In July of 1945 as World War II was winding down, a US Heavy Cruiser was sank by a Japanese submarine.  300 US Sailors were killed instantly but fortunately another 900 were able to escape the sinking ship. Unfortunately, however, no one knew where they were so what followed was 4 hellish days of human suffering and death. In this week's episode of HPH we're telling you about the sinking and the desperate struggle to survive that followed.  Because this is such a dark and upsetting story, we've invited a few special friends to make their return to help tell the tale.  Grab a drink and settle in for this episode of Hundred Proof History titled USS Indianapolis...HOLEY SHIP!
