Well i am sure they did some kind of project, but not real sure if the men really fused with the ship and went missing and all that crazy stuff

The "Philadelphia experiment" is a myth. Several books and a cheesy movie were made out of a story about an experiment to make warships invisible using UFO technology.
In fact, the destroyer, USS Eldridge, was nowhere near the site that the event occurred.
There was installation of electro-magnetic equipment on US Navy ships during the Second World War. It is called degaussing and it does make ships "invisible"- to the magnetic detectors on mines. Degaussing is still in use on Navy ships: as well as defeating magnetic mines, it prevents corrosion of the hull.

In truth, with the Manhattan Project going on, the US government was interested in "alternative" means of warfare, and along with Nicola Tesla, they were interested in using electronics to defeat radar. I would imagine that there were many such experiments and scientific work going on in 1943. However, the story of the misplaced destroyer, the men becoming part of the ship, the ship moving in time and space? That's pure science fiction. There are still many strange experiments going on by our government that we will probably never find out about, but the whole moving ship thing is comparable to the Roswell thing. Yes, it's very possible something happened, but, in my humble opinion, we the general public will never really know. Much of the UFO and Philadelphia experiment information we have is very purposeful disinformation, too.

Yes.
The Navy experimented with various ways to carry cream cheese aboard ships without it spoiling in an unrefrigerated cargo hold.
Several crewmembers died as a result of food poisoning, and the whole experiment was scrapped.

I saw a documentary once about the Navy's attempt at transportation, involving an entire ship and crew. It was not a very credible film, but if the govt. wants to get secret they can.

Yes. The U.S. experiment in teleportation. I think it's fiction.
