[Capt. Tom]

We have to see his note and get what was actually written.

It's odd that a person who would have a name that is hard to pronounce by Americans, would use a Muslim name in it's place.

Remember the opeining lines of Moby Dick:
"Call me Ishmael. Some years ago - never mind how long precisely - having little or no money in my purse, ... -

It is not like he used Ishmael which is a Jewish , Christian spelling he used Ismail which is a Muslim spelling.

Might not be anything to it,but it should be checked out.

Remember the opeining lines of Moby Dick:

"Call me Ishmael. Some years ago - never mind how long precisely - having little or no money in my purse, ...

Opening line of The Vale of Laughter by Peter De Vries:

"Call me, Ishmael. Feel absolutely free to call me any hour of the day or night at the office or at home . . ."
