High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Michael Patrick O'Connor, (1896 1967) was an Irish doctor, author and broadcaster. O'Connor was born in Loughrea, County Galway, Ireland. He joined the British Army in 1914 and served in the Royal Irish Regiment in France and Belgium during World War I. A German gas attack in March 1918 ended his active career, and after the war he returned as part of an exhumation unit to re-inter battlefield dead in military cemeteries. In 1918 he enrolled at University College, Dublin, from where he gained a degree in medicine in 1925. After a short period as a ship s surgeon, O Connor decided to join the Colonial Medical Service in Malaya. After completing a five month course at the London School of Tropical Medicine, in February 1927 O Connor travelled with his wife Kit and daughter to work in Malaya, where a second daughter was born in Batu Gajah. A third daughter was born in 1930. O'Connor served at Kuala Lipis for three years, and then in early 1935 transferred to Singapore to work in public health and preventative medicine; that same year his younger two daughters were sent to England to join their older sister at school in Dover.
