USS Indianapolis
The guest speaker from the USS Indianapolis went through a lot when the ship sank. He had to deal with a lot of stuff when he was in the water. He delt with the heat of the sun, and due to the sun people from the ship were getting sun burned, getting blisters and much more. Since they were in the middle of the ocean they suffered from dehidration and sharks. The sharks were a huge problem during the 5 days he was stranded in the middle of the ocean, they attacked a lot of people. Another problem was when the ship sank there was oil everywhere. My overall reaction was that he had to go through a lot and he got nothing back from it and i don't think he wanted anything back.
