"LBJ's management of the Pueblo incident was consistent with his overall performance as Commander in Chief."

Just saw a repeat with Ollie North and War Stories.

The "war protests" at home caused LBJ to call off the rescue of the USS Pueblo crew.

4 DD's were set to be deployed.

AND to this day, not one US President has lifted a finger to
1) exonerate the USS Pueblo crew
2) reclaim OUR ship, which is still listed in the US Navy ships list.

This could have easily been me and my ship.

Thank God it wasn't, but damn, it shouldn't have been any U.S. ship.
