Yellow Fever. I presume that Angels’ father was in Rangoon after it was retaken as he was flown out by Dak. I do not know what date the RAF introduced jabs for yellow fever or how meticulous they were in ensuring everyone everywhere had one. Rangoon fell to the Japanese in March 1942 and squadrons had to evacuate as best they could; even within individual squadrons some personnel flew out, some left by ship and some had to walk out of Burma. Of those that left by ship there are reports of numbers of RAF personnel dying from yellow fever whilst on board. David
