U.S. Navy Lt. Cmdr. Christopher M. Andrews, lead medical surgeon for Exercise Cobra Gold 2012, met with Royal Thai Army Captain Jakkrapong Khruacharoem, an emergency surgeon at Fort Suranaree Hospital, Feb. 2 and discussed, through an interpreter, where U.S. troops stationed at Camp Suranaree could be taken in case of a medical emergency. Among local medical concerns are food borne illnesses and mosquitoes. The virus dengue fever, which is transmitted by mosquitoes, is a high concern to U.S. service members. Cobra Gold is an annual Thai and U.S. co-sponsored joint and multinational exercise that includes forces from Singapore, Japan, Indonesia, Republic of Korea and Malaysia.
