Episode 6 – 883 Killed

In July 1945, after the success of the Trinity Test, President Truman ordered that the new atomic bombs be ready for assembly and potential use as quickly as possible. Truman, who was at the Potsdam Conference at the time, wanted the bombs prepared should the leaders of Japan refuse the final opportunity offered to surrender. In the midst of the conference, a number of ships sent parts for the new atomic bombs to the island of Tinian. Among the ships sent to Tinian was the USS Indianapolis, which carried key parts for the bomb codenamed “Little Boy,” including the enriched uranium core and gun-trigger method needed to detonate the bomb. After completing this mission, the USS Indianapolis moved away from the front line of fighting and halted defensive maneuvers, as the captain and crew had not received any reports of enemy submarines in the area. This decision proved catastrophic on July 30, 1945, when a Japanese submarine launched a torpedo strike against the Indianapolis, sinking the heavy cruiser in twelve minutes. The sinking left nearly 900 men in the water for days, as the US Navy did not know the location of the Indianapolis when it sank, or that the ship had been sunk at all.
