 Reginald Duffield
Reginald Duffield is Whit's
friend from World War II during the Battle of Guadalcanal. They first
met when Whit was on a rescue mission to find Regi, nicknamed during the
events of
Rescue from Manatugo
Point. Regi and Whit later worked together
during
Operation: Dig-Out.
During the battle, Whit saved Regi from a bomb that shot shrapnel into
Whit's leg and took off part of his ear. Regi in turn rescued the
unconscious Whit from the water, but was shipped out after the
operation.
Years later Regi came to Odyssey to fulfill a promise the two made and
to let Whit know that his witnessing to him paid off, and Regi not only
became a Christian, but also became the pastor of a church back in
England. Whit showed Regi Whit's End and talked with him about some
other things. He also helped Jimmy Barclay
and Oscar Peterson in creating a
Shakespeare skit for their assignment in the Fall Festival. At the same
time he also helped Whit figure out how to help Donna Barclay in getting
over her bitterness over Karen Crosby's death. The Shakespeare skit
turned out to be a success and Donna was finally able to accept Karen's
death and move on. |
