Who can say with any degree of certainty what one will do when confronted with death - one’s own! I had my chance during a very unique experience with a man-eating tiger! His total to that date was seven victims. This night attack occurred during a three-week patrol in deep jungle of the State of Kelantan during the final phases of the Malayan Emergency. However, that isn’t the main reason for these pages. Sit down awhile while I practice memory recall. You won’t regret it.
