Afghan National Army Air Corps soldiers wait to be seen at the Command Air Corps Medical Service Clinic Feb. 23, at Kabul International Airport, Afghanistan. Averaging between 60 and 70 customers a week, Afghan medics treat soldiers for various medical issues. The most common being dehydration, broken bones, frost bite, work-related injuries, and dental problems and colds. For the four-Airman medical advisory team, ensuring these Afghan medics correctly treat patients is key to getting Afghan soldiers back into the fight.
