North of Guadalcanal, Solomon Islands while enroute to Vanuatu 11h01 -time of ship sinkingExplosion & sinking of the USS Juneau after being torpedoed by the submarine I-85Over a period of a week men in the water died of wounds, thirst & sharks. George Sullivan, the last of the Sullivan brothers, survived for 5 days & then was killed by 3 sharks.YES Because of a mistaken belief that there were no survivors and several other successive errors, of the 100 to 150 men who survived the sinking, only 11 were rescued. Four of the Sullivan brothers died in the initial blast.
