I need not tell fellow Freepers the story of the USS Indianapolis, we all know it.
Harold Bray has lived in Benicia, California for many years (as did I). Mr. Bray routinely shared his story with high school history classes (both my sons heard his him). I met him once and spoke with him, he is a gentlemen and a hero.
His birthday is coming up: June 15th. He will be 98 years old.
His family and friends have asked for birthday cards and well wishes from as many people as possible. The address to send the cards is:
Harold Bray
PO Box 174
Benicia, CA 94510
(They have stated: Do not send items for autographs, they will not be returned)

In before somebody mentions “Jaws”, whoops that was me.
