At 12:14 a.m.; she was struck by two Japanese torpedoes; rolled over; and sank.Marine survivor Edgar Harrell vividly describes the horrors of being plagued by dehydration; exposure; saline poisoning; and sharks. This is a story of courage; ingenuity; and faith in God's providence in the midst of the greatest catastrophe at sea in the history of the U.S. Navy.
