The USS Indianapolis National Memorial

Well represented memorial with pic of ship and its history. A LONG list of names who sacrificed for our country on its last voyage when it was sunk and an accounting of this event engraved at the memorial. I visited this memorial after listening to an outstanding account of this ships last voyage on Audible entitled “Indianapolis”. What a story these men have to tell and few have heard!nThere’s a playground just next to memorial or walk down the man-made canal.

This is a beautiful but small memorial. A memory that should not be forgotten. The story is very powerful. Take the time while visiting the Canal and remember.

Sad but fitting memorial to the brave men!

Poignant memorial. Beautiful space as well.

Beautiful park with a new park for kids. Safe place to hang out with the family during the day. Restaurants on the canal walk and a cute gelato shop.
