    Project Epsilon was the name for the interning of Heisenberg and nine other scientists - they were held at Farm Hall, Godmanchester .... I lived there for a few years ... ( in Godmanchester not Farm Hall !! ) and it was quite common knowledge about the Germans being kept there instead of going to Russia !!

    What a burden this poor man had to bear ..... God rest his soul .......

    How many reasons will they ever find for the sinking .... but what was the real reason ? ..... or is that secret too ??

    The captain of the Indianapolis, Charles B. McVay, survived the sinking and was later charged by the Navy with hazarding his ship by failing to steer a zigzag course during “good visibility.” The zigzagging tactic was used by Navy commanders to make their ships more difficult targets. McVay was convicted. In 1968, he took his own life. In 2000, Congress passed a resolution clearing McVay of wrongdoing.

    Well he was given recognition and his name really cleared in his sons lifetime anyways ! .... what a thrill that must have been for them !!

    Moe Berg was "the bomb" .... there was a program on TV about him .... one of the best educated intellectually accomplished and patriotic Jewish athletes in the history of American sports !!

    Fascinating !! .... just goes to show athletes aren't all brawn !!

    Moe Berg (1902-1972)
