On this ship served as "fighting brothers Sullivan", the national heroes of the United States, who fought and died together.

The Juneau cruiser was sunk during the Battle of Guadalcanal in 1942 after the torpedo attacks of Japanese submarines. On this ship, the five Sullivan brothers were killed, who later became national heroes. Politics US Navy forbade relatives to serve together, but for Sullivans an exception was made.

LiveScience reports that the ship was found at a depth of 4 km, for its detection, echolocation and underwater robots with video cameras.

The company, which discovered the "Juneau", is professionally engaged in the search for sunken ships. On her account, many finds: the ships "Lexington", "Indianapolis", "Astoria" and many others.
