Tropical ulcer (also known as "Aden ulcer," "Jungle rot," "Malabar ulcer," and "Tropical phagedena") is a lesion occurring in cutaneous leishmaniasis. It is caused by a variety of microorganisms, including mycobacteria. It is common in tropical climates.
I say look for it on Wikipedia and search for it. It's okay if you barf.

Some GIs got it but it was treatable. Jungle rot is (or was at the time) akin to WWIs "trench foot." Both were obtained by fighting men when their feet were exposed to dampness without fresh/dry air for extended lengths of time. The term trench foot came from the men serving in the trenches of the First World War.

What is jungle rot disease?
Jungle rot is a bacterial infection of the skin caused usually by staph. It happens when sweat is on the skin and clothing rub against it. The rubbing opens microscopic holes in the epidermal layers and the heat and moisture are ideal for bacterial growth. One of the ways to avoid it is to go commando, which refers to taking off all undergarments, underwear, t-shirt, and sock, and just putting the outer cloths back on. This helps the moisture evaporate off the skin and also keeps the chaffing down to a minimum. If you get jungle rot and you don't get medical treatment it can turn to gangrene which may result in needing an amputation, or even death. Most of the deaths in WWI were to trench foot, which is really the same disease only occurring on the feet due to the constant dampness they had in the trenches.
