That's the USS Pueblo. She's a US spy ship captured by the North Koreans in the late 60's. They still have as a trophy I believe.

Winner! Again. You know way too much random shite Darth.

USS Pueblo (AGER-2) is an American ELINT and SIGINT[1] Banner-class technical research ship (Navy intelligence) which was boarded and captured by North Korean forces on 23 January 1968, in what is known as the Pueblo incident or alternatively as the Pueblo crisis or the Pueblo affair. The declassified SIGAD for the National Security Agency (NSA) Direct Support Unit (DSU) from the Naval Security Group (NSG) on Pueblo during the patrol involved in the incident was USN-467Y.[2] The capture came less than a week after President Lyndon B. Johnson's State of the Union address, only a week before the start of the Tet Offensive in South Vietnam and 3 days after 31 men of North Korea's KPA Unit 12 had infiltrated across the Korea DMZ attempting to attack the South Korean Blue House in Seoul.[3] The subsequent 11-month prisoner drama was a major incident in the Cold War.

It a curse and a blessing. I've not been able to get any of our friends to play Trivial Pursuit with me in years.

Heinrich Himmler? In his younger years before the glasses and mass murdering of any race that he didn't like.

Nope, not Hitler. I'll give you a hint... He never served on the Eastern Front.

No. Himmler actually missed WWI. He joined the army but was not done with his training when the war ended.

We have a winner! The guy in the picture is a young Erwin Rommel who later went on to be known to history as The Desert Fox.

Glad to see this thread still alive! I've been away from the computer the last day and a half so I haven't been able to participate.

Welcome back.

I'm about to have to run in a few minutes but before I do, let's try one more....



Who is this solder and what was odd about the unit they commanded?

Hint: We're still in WWI here.
