What did he say, something like turn on your flashlight and help guide them home? That was a great episode.

turn on your flashlight and help guide them home?Yep. Here's the last part:
So if some moment, any moment, you hear the sound of jet engines flying atop the overcast - engines that sound searching and lost - engines that sound desperate - shoot up a flare or do something. That would be Global 33 trying to get home - from The Twilight Zone.

Yes we did. The bar was normally closed the day we arrived but they opened it because we landed. It seemed most of the American civilians showed up there to greet us. We let my daughter who would have been 2 or 3 at the time write on the wall.
The biggest Hermit crabs I have ever seen were on Wake. From a distance they looked like coconuts until we noticed they were moving.
