indianapolis
regardless what other people who call the city “indianoplace” say, the capital of indiana is still great. it can’t be that bad, as its population has grown steadily, meaning people aren’t leaving. the city currently has a population of over 780,000. that’s bigger than st. louis, omaha, milwaukee, louisville, cleveland, pittsburgh, and even boston, folks. it has a great skyline in my opinion, and it is growing in the “clean” industry area. for example, they now have several pharmaceutical and software companies. in addition, the city can be reached throught a day’s drive by over half of the united states population. the indianapolis colts are great football team (they beat the packers before), the pacers rock, and indycar is way better than that stupid nascar. oh yeah, indianapolis is not full of a bunch of stupid midwestern hicks, there are thousands and thousands of successful people within the city with various careers ranging from medicine, industrial and technological, education, etc.

(military history/ film history)
“the” uss indianapolis to be precise. the warship was commissioned at the philadelphia navy yard on 15 november 1932. on 30 july 1945, while sailing from guam to leyte, indianapolis was torpedoed by j-panese submarine i-58. the ship capsized and sank in twelve minutes. survivors were spotted by a patrol aircraft on 2 august. all air and surface units capable of rescue operations were dispatched to the scene at once, and the surrounding waters were thoroughly searched for survivors. upon completion of the day and night search on 8 august, 316 men were rescued out of the crew of 1,199.

– the description of the sinking of the uss indianapolis is immortalised by actor robert shaw’s superbly acted monologue in the memorable scene of jaws (usa, 1975).
hopper: you were on the indianapolis?
brody: what happened?
quint: j-panese submarine slammed two torpedoes into her side, chief. we was comin’ back from the island of tinian to leyte. we’d just delivered the bomb. the hiroshima bomb. eleven hundred men went into the water. vessel went down in 12 minutes. didn’t see the first shark for about a half-hour. tiger. 13-footer. you know how you know that in the water, chief? you can tell by lookin’ from the dorsal to the tail. what we didn’t know, was that our bomb mission was so secret, no distress signal had been sent. they didn’t even list us overdue for a week. very first light, chief, sharks come cruisin’ by, so we formed ourselves into tight groups. it was sorta like you see in the calendars, you know the infantry squares in the old calendars like the battle of waterloo and the idea was the shark come to the nearest man, that man he starts poundin’ and hollerin’ and sometimes that shark he go away… but sometimes he wouldn’t go away. sometimes that shark looks right at ya. right into your eyes. and the thing about a shark is he’s got lifeless eyes. black eyes. like a doll’s eyes. when he comes at ya, he doesn’t even seem to be livin’… ’til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then… ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin’. the ocean turns red, and despite all your poundin’ and your hollerin’ those sharks come in and… they rip you to pieces. you know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men. i don’t know how many sharks there were, maybe a thousand. i do know how many men, they averaged six an hour. thursday mornin’, chief, i b-mped into a friend of mine, herbie robinson from cleveland. baseball player. boson’s mate. i thought he was asleep. i reached over to wake him up. he bobbed up, down in the water, he was like a kinda top. upended. well, he’d been bitten in half below the waist. at noon on the fifth day, a lockheed ventura swung in low and he spotted us, a young pilot, lot younger than mr. hooper here, anyway he spotted us and a few hours later a big ol’ fat pby come down and started to pick us up. you know that was the time i was most frightened. waitin’ for my turn. i’ll never put on a lifejacket again. so, eleven hundred men went into the water. 316 men come out, the sharks took the rest, june the 29th, 1945. anyway, we delivered the bomb. –
