Pueblo was involved in Vietnam in 1968 or something, and they went up a river into a country where they had no right to be, and got caught. They were supposedly on some kind of spy mission or something, but the U.S. government wouldn't admit it. The country may have been China(?). And yes, David Gerrold's books keep mentioning that The Enterprise Incident was based on this (does anyone have any info other than my free-associations about this)? -Ted Ives philabs!ihnp4!dartvax!tedi w x q w x q
