Jon thinks this is thrombosis and I agree (aka arterial thrombosis “heart attack”)

Hi Jon

"1943 Mark Kerr St.John Carpendale| attached to Fighter Command at RAF Martlesham Heath | died en route from SSQ to hospital of a coronary thrombosis"

I have his death being at Rollestone Camp in Wiltshire, which fits his death registration in Salisbury, so was probably en-route from there rather than Martlesham
