Hunter Alan Scott (born June 9 1985) is currently studying journalism at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on a Naval ROTC scholarship. Originally from Pensacola, Florida and an alumnus of Pensacola High School, he is best known for the research he did regarding USS Indianapolis. This research, which he did in 1998 as part of a history assignment, was instrumental in raising public awareness of the issues related to the court-martial of the ship's commanding officer, Capt. Charles McVay III . (Source: Detroit News, April 23, 1998)
