Today Commander Bucher would have been considered a hero.

Attitudes were different back then.  It was a very very unpopular war, much
more so than the current situation in Iraq.

Hats off to one brave sailor.

  Navy Commander in 1968 Spy Ship Case Dies
  SAN DIEGO (AP) - Former Navy Cmdr. Lloyd "Pete" Bucher, who helped his USS
Pueblo crew survive nearly a year of brutal captivity in North Korea and
then faced criticism back home, has died. He was 76.

  Bucher had been in declining health for months, partly the legacy of his
captivity in 1968, said Stu Russell, who served under Bucher and is
president of the USS Pueblo Veteran's Association.
