Harry Maring of Grand Rapids reports a quirky fishing spree using a wrong-way Corigan system. He first reels a 174 inch brown while targeting Walleyes, then a 23 inch, then a 25 inch brown weighing 844 pounds on a minnow, claiming he is not a real fisherman.
The article recalls the Dinjan Assam airfield and the arduous Hump crossing over the Himalayas. It notes pilots from C N A C and Royal Air Force crews flying DC-3s and C-47s, with early navigation by improvised strips, strict checks, and rare but training-filled routes. It highlights dangers including Japanese Zero encounters and instrument-only landings, plus personal grit and passage through intense early days of the Army Transport Command.
