My father-in-law was stationed with the U.S. Army in India. He had a severe case of malaria and was in hospital when the ship came to take the men home. They told him he would have to wait for another ship. He tore out the IVs and dragged himself on board the ship. He said he would rather die on a ship headed home than stay one more day in India. He did make it home, and lived a long and happy life in the good old U.S.A.
