Liberty signifies permission for a crew member to be absent from the ship for a short period of time. This authorization is given for legitimate reasons, such as attending to personal matters or seeking medical assistance. For instance, a sailor might ask for liberty to visit the local market to buy fresh fruits and vegetables for the ship’s galley.
