Pueblo gun loader had no idea how to get ammo
Earl R. Phares testified before a five admiral court of inquiry into the Pueblo affair that he did not know how to obtain ammunition for the forward 50 caliber machine gun. He said the locker was locked and no opening method had been devised. The crew had only a three hour familiarization at a firing range in Japan and fired about 100 rounds.
