This episode of the 1960s TV show "True Adventure" is provocatively entitled "Cannibal Kings of New Guinea”. The episode follows the work of pastor Len Barnard, an Australian missionary who began working for the Seventh-day Adventist Church in 1933, operating primarily on the island of New Guinea. Barnard became a licensed pilot and brought medical care to remote areas, work that included contact with lepers. In the 1960s, Barnard co-founded Adventist Aviation which continues to operate a fleet of aircraft in the South Pacific Division. Barnard retired in the 1980s. Please note: this episode contains a great deal of condescending narration directed towards the "primitive" natives of New Guinea, that some viewers may find offensive.
