===World War II===
Like his father before him, Cade left his young family to fight for Australia in the Armed Forces in World War II. Cade was appointed [[Captain (land)|captain]], [[Australian Army Medical Corps]], [[Second Australian Imperial Force|A.I.F.]], on 1 July 1940 and posted to the 2nd/9th Field Ambulance.<ref name=adb/> Although trained as a psychiatrist, Dr. Cade served as a [[surgery|surgeon]] and departed for Singapore in 1941 on {{RMS|Queen Mary}}.  He was promoted to [[Major (rank)|major]] in September 1941.  After the [[Battle of Singapore|Fall of Singapore]] to Japan, he became a [[prisoner of war]] at [[Changi Prison]] from February 1942 to September 1945.<ref name="jack"/> During his imprisonment, he reportedly would observe some fellow inmates having strange, vacillating behaviour. He thought perhaps a toxin was affecting their brains and when it was eliminated through their urine, they lost their symptoms.
