Edgar Harrell
The late Edgar Harrell served as a Marine aboard the USS Indianapolis when the ship was sunk by Japanese submarine I-58. Harrell survived nearly five days adrift in the Pacific Ocean before being rescued as one of only 316 survivors of the ships complement. He became part of the Marine Detachment aboard the USS Indianapolis (CA-35), a decorated Portland-class heavy cruiser that had already seen extensive action in the Pacific Theater. Throughout 1944 and into 1945, Harrell participated in numerous critical operations. The Indianapolis served as a flagship for the Fifth Fleet under Admiral Raymond Spruance and took part in some of the most pivotal battles of the war. The Indianapolis received a highly secretive new mission: to transport the components of the atomic bomb Little Boy to the island of Tinian. The Indianapolis was attacked by the Japanese submarine I-58 on the night of July 30, 1945. Torpedoes struck the ship, causing catastrophic damage, and the cruiser sank in approximately 12 minutes. Over the next four and a half days, he endured extreme thirst, exhaustion, shark attacks, and the psychological trauma of watching fellow crew members die around him. He credited his strong Christian faith with helping him maintain hope during those dark days. On August 2, a passing patrol plane spotted the survivors, and Harrell was rescued — one of only 316 survivors from a crew of nearly 1,200. Edgar Harrell went home to be with the Lord on May 8, 2021.
