The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

The USS Indianapolis' Last Survivor


The January 2018 Columbia Daily Tribune said that Gerald Melbourne Poor is the last surviving member of the crew of the tragic USS Indianapolis.

When we go to the Indy 500, we park the RV at the American Legion Post 500 across from the IMS and they have a picture of the doomed ship on the wall.
