Don joined the RAAF on 6th August 1940 at Adelaide, South Australia.

On the morning of 2 June 1945, Don was standing alongside the open left-hand cabin door of a squadron truck watching two mechanical fitters strip and clean the carburettor using some petrol in a tin (estimated to be about 3-4 fluid ounces. The carburettor was reassembled except for the fitment of the air clearner. An attempt was made to start the vehicle, resulting a a blow-back, which ignited the tin of petrolthat was being held by one of the fitters. Don apparently stepped back from beside the door in an effort to avoid the burning liquid. The tin was thrown out of the cabin, striking the door and the contents splashed backwards over Don's body. He rolled in the sand to extinguish the flames.

He was found to be suffering from 1st and 2nd degree burnsto the upper part of his body. Penicillin was adninistered, however, by 1945 hrs (7.45 pm) he had been placed on the seriously ill list. Shortly after 2000 hrs (8.00 pm), with his condition deteriorating, he was placed on oxygen. He died at 2145 hrs (9.45 pm) that night.
