September MEDCAP

Earlier in September we conducted our first airlift MEDCAP to a remote village. To my knowledge, it's the most remote MEDCAP ever conducted by a task force based at Camp Bondsteel. The village was so small, there were no facilities to use so we brought our own shelters and furniture. It was another success in working with local professionals and providing care to those who most need it.
