EIGHT ROWS; THE SERVICE RECORD FULL, THE DECORATION RECORD EMPTY
Revolution and War of 1812: ancestry claims only, in later men's biographies — no resident's service, and the era predates United States valor decorations in any case. Civil War: no decoration recorded for any of the eleven named Liberty men; one killed in action (Kane, Bentonville), one killed in narrative (Rupel, Tennessee). Spanish-American and Philippine: no Liberty name reached; the county's summit figure of the era is Nolan, at pointer in the article above. First World War: the roll records no decoration for the town's dead, and prints citations for others in the same section — the strongest single proof in this section. Second World War: no decoration record reached at claimable strength; no town honor roll was compiled in any carrier reached; service itself is proven by enlistment transcriptions and the VA burial file. Korea: no decoration reached, and the official casualty file records this county's home-of-record city as "UNKNOWN" — it cannot assign a decoration to this town, and none is assigned. Vietnam: no decoration reached, and no North Liberty home-of-record casualty exists in the war's standard roll (read whole for the wars file); the roll's "LIBERTY:" heading is the Union County town, excluded by name. Later wars: no decoration and no casualty for a servicemember of this town reached in any carrier; the DPAA unaccounted-for lists for Indiana named no man of this ground at the strength searched. Read as a whole, the table's verdict is its own sentence: across eight wars the decoration record for this town is not thin but empty at every claimable strength, while the service record is full — and a small farming township producing no officially recorded valor decoration across 160 years is a normal American result, printed here as a result.
