Just before 1 p.m. on Monday, there was a series of loud explosions and flying debris from the World War II ship the USS Mohawk as it slowly descended to the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico. It took just three minutes to sink below the water line and shortly after Scuba Divers were in the water.
The USS Mohawk was scuttled 28 miles off of the coast of Sanibel Island, Florida to become a brand new artificial reef for divers and anglers as well as a WWII Veterans memorial.
