Maj. Phillip Cummings, a doctor from Fayetteville, N.C., deployed with the 7225th Medical Support Unit of Greenville, S.C., listens to the breathing of a Ugandan man who complained of chest pain. As part of a U.S. Army Africa exercise, Natural Fire 10, the 7225th MSU and the 629th Forward Surgical Team of Columbus, Ohio, worked side-by-side with Ugandan and Tanzanian providers as well as U.S. Navy dentists to treat over 700 local residents per day, extracting teeth, providing medications for malaria, parasites and skin infections, and even issuing eyeglasses.
