Fake charts used by Pueblo crew to foil North Korea claim
San Diego reports Lt. Edward Murphy Jr says the USS Pueblo officers planted fake navigation charts to counter North Korean assertions of territorial waters intrusion. He says key coordinates were obviously false, including a line implying 2,500 knot speed while the ship tops at 12 knots. The Navy released transmissions and notes on the seizure with details of wounded crew and the late Seaman Duane Hodges, killed during the incident.
