The Last Voyage of the USS Pueblo (1969)
Normally this tumblr does not celebrate the tricks of the imperialist running dogs of the US Navy BUT after the Pueblo was captured by the North Koreans they eventually forced the ship's captain to write a confession and
Bucher wrote the confession since a 'confession' by definition needed to be written by the confessor himself. They verified the meaning of what he wrote, but failed to catch the pun when he said "We paean the North Korean state. We paean their great leader Kim Il Sung" ("We paean" sounds almost identical to "we pee on").
