We should've destroyed the Pueblo the week after it was taken.

We should have destroyed the port where they were forcing it to go.

That we could have done.

That we had no assets close enough to do....unless we wanted to nuke it. The only aircraft in range where USAF F-4s, on strip alert in South Korea, but they were armed with tactical nukes. They didn't even have any guns that they could have strafed the NK ships boats "escorting" Pueblo into harbor.
