Are you following this?

The U.S. captain being held by pirates off Somalia appeared to be unharmed Friday after his unsuccessful attempt to escape.

The standoff between the pirates, in a lifeboat with Capt. Richard Phillips is ongoing. The destroyer USS Bainbridge and frigate USS Halliburton, were in the vicinity of the lifeboat. Phillips jumped overboard in an attempt to swim to the Bainbridge, but was recaptured.

Did you know we had a frigate named Halliburton? Is it owned by Halliburton or leased to US by them?
