RAF Death from Typhoid in Iraq 1932

Almost ninety-four years ago on the 21st April 1932, Aircraftman 1st Class Victor W W Brandon of the Royal Air Force No 1 Armoured Car Company became another RAF death from Typhoid in the Military Hospital at RAF Hinaidi and was buried at the Ma'Asker Al Raschid RAF Cemetery (formerly named the Hinaidi RAF Peace Cemetery) in Plot 1 Row C Grave 5. Though little remains at the Commonwealth War Graves maintained cemetery after decades of neglect, a fragment of AC1 Brandon's headstone has survived the ravages of time. May he continue to rest in peace. There is a list of all Armoured Car Company deaths on my website.
