Pueblo crewmen fear shot crossing bridge at Panmunjom
Reported statements from Pueblo crew members describe fears of being shot during the bridge crossing at Panmunjom. Communications Technician Sidney Karnes recounted how buses’ windows were blocked by sheets as 82 survivors traveled to the Bridge of No Return, with Karnes noting he walked the long way across the bridge to avoid possible return fire. Navy journalists say other crewmen shared similar fears, while debriefing and medical examinations continue with limited details given to families. Family accounts say captives show resilience despite physical changes and alleged mistreatment.
