Iraqi leaders visit civilian IED victims at Air Force hospital
Balad Mayor Amer Mrhown Al-Obedy kisses the cheek of a young Iraqi girl Feb. 11 at Balad Air Base, Iraq. The girl was injured in a car bombing the day before and was brought to the Air Force Theater Hospital for treatment. The mayor and other local area leaders came to the hospital to visit with 16 Iraqi patients who were admitted there after a vehicle-borne improvised explosive device was detonated Feb. 10. The hospital serves as the region's premiere hub for medical care. The staff treats both coalition Force members and Iraqi civilians who would likely not survive without the technologically-advanced care available at the hospital.
