Midgett was three miles from which lifeboat station when he rescued?

• A. Gull Shoal Lifeboat Station
• B. Cape Cod Lifeboat Station
• C. Cape May Lifeboat Station
• D. Block Island Lifeboat Station

Answer: (A)

The situation tests knowledge of where a famous Midgett rescue took place along the U.S. Lifesaving Service network. Being three miles from Gull Shoal Lifeboat Station points to the North Carolina coast, where the Gull Shoal station operated and where the Midgett family carried out many rescues. The other stations listed—Cape Cod, Cape May, and Block Island—are all in the Northeast, far from the Outer Banks area that the Midgetts operated in. So, the clue about the distance aligns with Gull Shoal Lifeboat Station, making it the best answer.
