  • Howard Thomas Bane (August 5, 1927 – July 27, 2007) was an American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) officer. He started his career with the United States Department of the Army, running an operation to recover downed airmen during the Korean War.

Bane received the Intelligence Star for his key role in the 1966 pro-Western Ghanaian coup. Bane helped coordinate the response to the 1974 French Embassy attack in The Hague and helped plan the CIA involvement in Operation Eagle Claw, an unsuccessful military intervention to resolve the Iran hostage crisis. He warned of the rise of Islamic jihadism but was hampered by cutbacks at the agency in the 1990s. He was brought out of retirement following the September 11 attacks to assist with a rapid expansion of the CIA and was awarded the Distinguished Intelligence Medal. (en)
