		PUEBLO departed Sasebo, Japan on January 11, 1968 and headed northward through the Tsushima Strait into the Sea of Japan to perfrom her mission; the surveillance of North Korean naval activity, the monitoring and recording of Korean coastal radars and surveillance of soviet naval units operating in the Tsushima Straits.
		PUEBLO crew was trying frantically to destroy classified materials; burning and shredding documents and smashing equipment with hammers and axes in the Sod Hut, burning documents in an incinerator behind the stack, and even dumping stuff overboard because the volume of sensitive material on board was too great to be shredded and burned quickly.
		After PUEBLO docked in Wonson, her crew, bound and blindfolded, was removed and led in front of a crowd of North Korean civilians which was yelling and screaming insults at the Americans.

	The Cold War Museum - USS Pueblo
		On January 11, 1968 the USS Pueblo left its port in Sasebo, Japan to embark on a surveillance mission in the Sea of Japan.
		Hence, when the Pueblo found itself the focus of attention from several North Korean jets and subchasers on the afternoon of January 23, 1968, the crew and its captain, Lloyd Mark (Skip) Bucher hoped such activity was only the routine harassment of an enemy reconnaissance ship rather than the initial sign of an impending confrontation.
		Fearing the possibility of another war in Asia, Johnson oversaw a diplomatic solution that allowed for the return of the 83 men aboard the USS Pueblo (including the body of the one crewmember killed during the conflict), but not the ship or any of its classified materials.

		According to a study by Robert A. Liston published in 1988, the NSA intended for the Pueblo to be seized by the North Koreans in the hopes that they would find and use an encoding machine that would enable U.S. intelligence to monitor traffic between North Korea and China.
		Pueblo was cruising in international waters between Japan and Korea when a North Korean patrol boat ordered her to heave to and she was boarded.
		Though Pueblo's capture has been described by one intelligence officer as "the greatest intelligence coup of modern times," owing to the secrecy in which the Navy's investigation of the incident was carried out, it is unlikely that all the facts of the case will be brought to light.

	Harold Bowen
		Notwithstanding Capt. James Lawrence's time-honored rallying cry in the War of 1812, the Pueblo was given up by its skipper, Cmdr. Lloyd M. Bucher, without firing a shot when it came under attack on Jan. 23, 1968, off the North Korean coast.
		Bowen was president of a naval court of inquiry that held two months of hearings on the Pueblo affair in Coronado, Calif., in the winter of 1969.
		He said that the Pueblo officers "have suffered enough" and that the inability to anticipate the attack reflected a general failure in the Navy command.

	Flying Yangban: Pueblo wants the Pueblo back
		To add to the sybolism of the display, it is docked at the same place where the USS General Sheman was destroyed and its crew massacred in 1866.
		Like the Philadelphia, Pueblo should have been destroyed by a US attack immediately after her capture (she was docked in Wonsan harbor for many years before removal to current location).
		In the case of the Pueblo, the U.S. would be somewhat obligated to return a Korean flag seized in the 1871 reprisal for the burning of the Sherman.

		The 1886 burning of General Sherman, 1968 capture of USS Pueblo and many other conflicts with the US super power have united the people of North Korea into a union of all for one and one for all - a force of 25 million ready to repulse the United States imperialism.
