'Heroes of the USS Liberty Speak Out'

Break of Dawn Productions

What really happened to the USS Liberty, and why does it matter now more than ever?

In June, 1967, the United States Navy's surveillance ship USS Liberty was sent to the Middle East to monitor the 6 Day War between Israel and its Arab Neighbors.

On June 8th, 1967, the Liberty was attacked without warning for over two hours by unidentified surface and air forces using rockets, torpedoes, napalm, and machine guns, leaving over 70% of the crew dead or wounded; the highest US casualty rate since World War II.

Since then, the truth about that day has been obscured at the highest levels of multiple governments, including ours.  The survivors of the USS Liberty have been threatened in private,
smeared in public, and denied their place among America's heroes for 40 years. Now, for the first time, we present the crew of the most decorated naval ship since WWII, telling their story in their own words.
