How You Can Help

We are currently working on several projects that will include photos, rare documents, and a section on the final sailing crew, including the 316 survivors and the 888 killed in action (including the 9 men killed in the Kamikaze attack in March 1945). Ultimately, we would like to include the Rescue/Recovery & Former Crew members as well. If you have photos of your loved one, your help is urgently requested.

IF THE NAME OF YOUR LOVED ONE IS LISTED BELOW, WE DO NOT HAVE A PHOTO FOR THEM, AND WOULD LIKE TO FIX THAT!

Modern technology provides the opportunity to share the photo with us so that it may be included in these projects, without it ever having to leave your possession.

Simply scan your photo and send it to us by selecting the crew member's name below or via email. If you use email, please identify your loved one in the photo. Send it to us at Admin@project888.org.

If you have photos, but are unable to access them at this time, please let us know. We'll do what we can to work with you.

If the name of your loved one is NOT on this list, that means we already have a photo for them on file.

ADOPT A CREW MEMBER: If you would like to help us locate photos and information for any of the crew members below, please select a name below that stands out to you.

See the link above for list of crew members and crew member's by the city/state they were from. We have found that often times searching for members locally provides successful results in libraries, local news archives, and historical societies where their records may not be digitized and/or available online. If you would like help selecting crew members from your area in this case, please feel free to email us. And if you need some help getting started with your search, check out this video with some great tips and insight, presented by USS Indy family member, Tammy Rusznak. (CLICK HERE).

We have additional tips and print resources available under our Project 888 page. You can find those here (CLICK HERE).

The list below was updated on March 8, 2025. Additional updates are coming soon!
If you have a photo for a crew member below, simply select their name and submit it to us. Thank you!
