Benjamin B. Bushong Jr., longtime resident of Traverse City, died March 24 at his son's home in Yucca Valley, Calif.

A 1954 graduate of Traverse City Central, Ben served his country honorably as a hospital corpsman in the U.S. Navy.

Utilizing the G I. Bill and working nights at Munson Hospital, Ben began taking classes at Northwestern Michigan College. After transferring to Central Michigan University, he graduated with a Master of Science degree in fresh water biology in 1964.

He worked as a research biologist in California before starting a 30-year teaching career with the Traverse City Public Schools. Over the years he taught biology, earth science and industrial arts.

Ben enjoyed the four seasons; he spent a good deal of life fishing the lakes, bays and streams of northern Michigan. Along with his pursuit of outdoor activities, his foremost concern and dedication was the preservation and integrity of the Boardman Valley watershed.

He also was highly involved with the Traverse City Elks Lodge and greatly enjoyed the friendships he made, as well as the opportunity to serve his community.

In 2007 to ‘08 he was named Elk of the Year at the local lodge.

Born Jan. 8, 1935, in Kalkaska, he was the son of Benjamin B. Bushong M.D. and Olga Mae (Neihardt) Bushong.

The family moved to Traverse City shortly after his birth, settling into the "stone house" on Union Street.

On March 1, 1957, he married Mary Jane Buser, who preceded him in death in 2004.

Surviving him are a son, Benjamin B. (Mary) Bushong III,.; and two granddaughters. He is also survived by three sisters, Ellen (Leland) Thornton, , Catherine Eubanks, and Alice Bushong.

Find A Grave Memorial# 56774967. The Final Crew of the USS Indianapolis (CA-35)

Of the 1,196 aboard, about 900 made it into the water in the twelve minutes before she sank. Few life rafts were released. Most survivors wore the standard kapok life jacket. Shark attacks began with sunrise of the first day, and continued until only 316 men were still alive when rescued, almost five days later.

Crew

BUSHONG, John R., GM3. Torpedoed Ship

The world's first operational atomic bomb was delivered by the Indianapolis, (CA-35) to the island of Tinian on 26 July 1945. The Indianapolis then reported to CINCPAC (Commander-In-Chief, Pacific) Headquarters at Guam for further orders. She was directed to join the battleship USS Idaho (BB-42) at Leyte Gulf in the Philippines to prepare for the invasion of Japan. The Indianapolis, unescorted, departed Guam on a course of 262 degrees making about 17 knots.

At 14 minutes past midnight, on 30 July 1945, midway between Guam and Leyte Gulf, she was hit by two torpedoes out of six fired by the I-58, a Japanese submarine. The first blew away the bow, the second struck near midship on the starboard side adjacent to a fuel tank and a powder magazine. The resulting explosion split the ship to the keel, knocking out all electric power. Within minutes she went down rapidly by the bow, rolling to starboard.

Of the 1,196 aboard, about 900 made it into the water in the twelve minutes before she sank. Few life rafts were released. Most survivors wore the standard kapok life jacket. Shark attacks began with sunrise of the first day and continued until the men were physically removed from the water, almost five days later.

Delayed Rescue

Shortly after 11:00 A.M. of the fourth day, the survivors were accidentally discovered by LT. (jg) Wilbur C. Gwinn, piloting his PV-1 Ventura Bomber on routine antisubmarine patrol. Radioing his base at Peleiu, he alerted, "many men in the water". A PBY (seaplane) under the command of LT. R. Adrian Marks was dispatched to lend assistance and report. Enroute to the scene, Marks overflew the destroyer USS Cecil Doyle (DD-368), and alerted her captain, of the emergency. The captain of the Doyle, on his own authority, decided to divert to the scene.

Arriving hours ahead of the Doyle, Marks' crew began dropping rubber rafts and supplies. While so engaged, they observed men being attacked by sharks. Disregarding standing orders not to land at sea, Marks landed and began taxiing to pick up the stragglers and lone swimmers who were at greatest risk of shark attack. Learning the men were the crew of the Indianapolis, he radioed the news, requesting immediate assistance. The Doyle responded she was enroute.

As complete darkness fell, Marks waited for help to arrive, all the while continuing to seek out and pull nearly dead men from the water. When the plane's fuselage was full, survivors were tied to the wing with parachute cord. Marks and his crew rescued 56 men that day. The Cecil Doyle was the first vessel on the scene. Homing on Marks' PBY in total darkness, the Doyle halted to avoid killing or further injuring survivors, and began taking Marks' survivors aboard.

Disregarding the safety of his own vessel, the Doyle's captain pointed his largest searchlight into the night sky to serve as a beacon for other rescue vessels. This beacon was the first indication to most survivors, that their prayers had been answered. Help had at last arrived. Of the 900 who made it into the water, only 317 remained alive. After almost five days of constant shark attacks, starvation, terrible thirst, suffering from exposure and their wounds, the men of the Indianapolis were at last rescued from the sea.
