Description

Written by the Executive Officer of the Pueblo, a U.S. intelligence ship captured by North Korea in January, 1968. Second In Command provides an account that differs greatly from from official Navy version and largely places blame on commanding officers for what, according to the officer, was entirely avoidable. A very good copy, in mylar covered dust jacket with nicked end somewhat worn edges.
