Recently read an aritcle on the Pueblo Incident in one of the history mags I’m always buying.
Poor old Commander Buecher sure took a scape goat beating from the Government over it. Bleep wasn’t right! After the half assed way the Navy/Agency sent them on assignment with virtually no heads up to the nearby Navy Fleet/Flotilla Commander on the Pueblo’s mission, or directing the Fleet Commander to develop and implement effective support/emergency response procedures to assist the Pueblo in the event of a NorK provocation/attack.
I had no idea the Pueblo started out life as an Army ship.
