Remember the Liberty! - dcdave.com

what the 23 year-old seaman Terry Halbardier did saved the day for the 260 men who survived, and probably saved the day for a lot more of us. One can read a very moving and informative [memorial] tribute to Halbardier by former CIA analyst Ray McGovern at Consortiumnews.com., who also wrote the foreword to Remember the Liberty!

As noted, the attacking airplanes had specifically targeted the ship’s communications. Within ten minutes of the initial onslaught Halbardier risked his life to go out amid the strafing to string a new cable from the one undamaged antenna to the one functioning transmitter, which was only functioning because it happened to have been shut down when the heat-seeking missiles came in. They sent a cry for help that somehow got through the intense radio jamming efforts of the Israelis (which were tellingly aimed at American radio frequencies). It was because of this fact that Johnson and McNamara were forced into their extraordinarily incriminating scurry-around mode in which they had to justify orders to American military officers not to go to the aid of fellow servicemen under attack. That action might well represent the lowest point in the history of the American presidency (although one can think of a number that rival it).

Terry Halbardier, crew member aboard the USS Liberty, was honored May 27th for his role in saving 260 lives during the Israeli attack on his ship. Halbardier had fixed a communications antenna ... which later sent out a signal for help.

Terry Halbardier was presented the Silver Star, the US Navy's third highest honor, by Congressman Devin Nunes.

Hall of Valor: James Terry Halbardier - valor.militarytimes.com

Terry Halbardier's Silver Star resulted from a late review of his heroic actions, and his Silver Star was approved and presented in 2009, more than forty years after the attack on the U.S.S. Liberty.

Awarded for actions during the U.S.S. Liberty Incident

The President of the United States of America takes pleasure in presenting the Silver Star to Electronics Technician Third Class James Terry Halbardier, United States Navy, for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action while serving on board the U.S.S. LIBERTY (AGTR-5), on 8 June 1967. The U.S.S. LIBERTY was attacked by Israeli aircraft and motor torpedo boats in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea on the fourth day of the SIX DAY WAR. Petty Officer Halbardier, without hesitation and with complete disregard for his own personal safety, fearlessly and repeatedly exposed himself to overwhelming rocket and machinegun fire to repair a damaged antenna in an open deck area during heavy aerial attacks. Aware that all of the ship's transmitting antennas had been destroyed and that communication with higher authority depended upon antenna repair, Petty Officer Halbardier risked his life to run connecting coaxial cable across open decks from the antenna to the main transmitter room. His efforts allowed the ship to establish communications with distant elements of the SIXTH Fleet and call for assistance. Despite being wounded, Petty Officer Halbardier ignored his injuries until the antenna had been repaired and the call for help had been received and acknowledged. His courageous actions were critical in alerting distant Navy commanders to the ship's need for assistance and were instrumental in saving the ship and hundreds of lives. Petty Officer Halbardier's outstanding display of decisive leadership, unrelenting perseverance, and loyal devotion to duty reflected great credit upon him and were in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service.

Action Date: 8-Jun-67

Service: Navy

Rank: Electronics Technician Third Class

Division: U.S.S. Liberty (AGTR-5)

Terry Halbardier's award was the first in more than 4 decades to note that the USS Liberty and its crew were militarily attacked by Israelis during the Six Day War.
