Yes, they still have the USS Pueblo and it is moored in Pyonyang, North Korea. The ship was attacked on International waters on January 23rd, 1968 and one sailor, seaman DUane Hodges, was killed by North Korean machine gun fire. Evbentually, the USS Pueblo was boarded and her crew captured and taken into North Korean POW camps, where they were bound, interrogated and beaten; specially when propaganda pictures taken from the men showed them giving the North Koreans the "Hawaiian Salute" (better known as "Flipping The Bird").
Eventually, the crew was returned to the US and the ship stayed in North Korea to this very day.
