<p>By Capt. Bruce Meneley, commanding officer, NATO Role 3 Multinational Medical Unit, Kandahar, Afghanistan. Meneley, a U.S. Navy Emergency Medicine physician, assumed command in August 2011 with a multinational crew composed of mostly U.S. Navy personnel, but also with U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, Canadian, Dutch, Belgian, British and Danish support.<br><br>"Kandahar is hot, dusty, noisy, and chaotic, with expeditionary buildings and wiring everywhere. Juxtaposed against this backdrop is the NATO Multinational Medical Unit — new, bright, modern, shiny and clean with a quiet, determined purposeful movement within, rivaling anything you might see in the United States and often better than what you’d see stateside."<br></p>
