Yellow Jack (1938) (MOD)The Spanish American War is over, but not the scourge of death. Yellow fever has killed more U. S. soldiers deployed to Cuba than battle and a medical team led by Dr. Walter Reed (Lewis Stone) is determined to defeat the microbial enemy.

Proving it will put more lives on the line: volunteers to be bitten and treated.
