Robert Chicca "Remembering the USS Pueblo" ONV 2025

Robert Chicca was one of the Pueblo's 83 crew members. This is a rare opportunity to hear, in person, his recollection of their capture on the high seas and survival when taken captive by North Korea, along with their ship, on January 23, 1968.

No one lifted a finger to help him during that attack,,,the crew got beaten to a pulp for almost a year,, and the Navy tried to court-martial him for surrending..

Oldest commissioned ship is the Constitution in Boston , not Constellation in Baltimore .

[@josephpadula2283]

The Pueblo was very similar to the ship used in The Movie Mr . Rogers staring Henry Fonda and Jack lemon .
