I'm not going to try to recall this from an old man's memory so here is a link.

[link to www.cdc.gov (secure)]
Melioidosis, also called Whitmore’s disease, is an infectious disease that can infect humans or animals. The disease is caused by the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei.

It is predominately a disease of tropical climates, especially in Southeast Asia and northern Australia where it is widespread. The bacteria causing melioidosis are found in contaminated water and soil. It is spread to humans and animals through direct contact with the contaminated source.

Melioidosis is a disease caused by germs that occur naturally in certain parts of the world, such as Southeast Asia and northern Australia. The only places these germs, called Burkholderia pseudomallei, occur naturally in the United States is Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands. One reason public health authorities study the disease is because it is possible that the germs that cause melioidosis might be used in a biological attack.
