Remember the Pueblo

GI Korea’s ROK Drop has a good post on it.

I lived about 40 miles north of Pueblo’s home port at the time.  My Dad was TDY to Korea.  He was supposed to be gone 5 days.  It was 55 days later when we saw him again.

We don’t do payback like we ought to.

    Your Dad was on the Pueblo?

    No, he was in the Air Force. He had the misfortune to be in Korea when the Pueblo was seized and wasn’t allowed to leave for two months.

    That was a bad time. The NK’s were in cahoots with the North Vietnamese.
