A fight not worth fighting. Will do no good but WILL give the North Koreans something more to irritate us over, much to their delight.

“Warship”??

Since when are electronic intelligence ships called that?

The thing is probably barely worth scrap at this point.

Maybe we can demand the Iranians return our “lost” drone.

Maybe we can demand the Russians return the captured Abrams tank, too. What? They don’t yet have a captured Abrams tank?

I’ve heard the North Koreans have made the Pueblo a tourist attraction.

It’s certainly not worth getting into military action to retrieve the ship.

I have to refresh my memory of the Pueblo incident, and President Johnson’s actions at the time. It certainly seemed to be an act of war, but the North Koreans released the crew while keeping the ship in the end. Interesting how that happened.

Apparently, the GOP will expand its usual circle jerk to include ancient foreign policy matters...

What have they done about addressing our lost freedoms & liberties?

When they towed it from the Sea of Japan side, completely around the peninsula in 1999 to Pyongyang, was the golden chance. It was a US Ship in international waters. We should have seized it or sunk it then.
In October 1999, she was towed from Wonsan on the east coast, around the Korean Peninsula, to the port of Nampo on the west coast. This required moving the vessel through international waters.

But we had Bill Clinton in the White House.

I had a "Free the Pueblo" bumper sticker on my bedroom wall in 69.

Enlisted in 71.

An older shipmate that served on the Pueblo was a master-at-arms on a ship I served on.

Never saw much of the guy, he always shuffling semi-hunched over when out and about.

It was removed from any navigable waters. The Norks cut it up in sections, transported it overland, and put it back together in a pond at their national museum. Couldn’t get to it even if we wanted to now.

I guess it’s just a way of reminding the lapdog of Russia and China that it’s a dishonorable bandito.

Had a Chief Instructor at Class A School that was asked by a friend to swap duty to be on the Pueblo. He wanted the sea duty. They switched.

My Chief Instructor went to teach at Class A School and his buddy went to North Korea.

True story. I’d tell you more, but then I’d have to kill you.
