North Korea will put a captured U.S. Navy ship on display this week as part of a new war museum.
The USS Pueblo, the only US Navy ship held by a foreign government, will go on display as the crown jewel of a North Korean military museum on Victory Day, which commemorates the signing of the treaty that ended the Korean War 60 years ago.
