ConflictSpanish American War

Year of Action1898

Unit/CommandUSS Winslow (Torpedo Boat #5)

Citation

On board the torpedo boat Winslow during the actions at Cardenas, Cuba, 11 May 1898. Conspicuously gallant during this period, Brady, by his energy in assisting to sustain fire, his efforts to repair the steering gear and his promptness in maintaining watertight integrity, was largely instrumental in saving the vessel.
