So where does a Californian go if he/she wants a quick Hawaiian vacation?? Catalina Island seems to be the answer. :) It's far enough from the mainland (I'm guessing you can't see the mainland in the distance) and is an island in the middle of the Pacific. Bingo! I did a quick google of Catalina an...

I'm not a big fan either of "Dead Man's Channel" (I actually prefer the season opener "Billy Joe Bob" but I guess I'm in ...

I should have written “leftenant” as Higgy would have said.

I don’t know the answer, but somehow feel he used the name as Lieutenant Freebairn Smith in one of his reminiscences about the war. Could be off on that though.
