    A soldier in desert camouflage uniform is distributing items to a group of children gathered around a military vehicle, likely a HMMWV (Humvee). The children are reaching out with open hands toward the soldier, suggesting a humanitarian aid or civil affairs interaction. This appears to be a military community outreach or aid distribution operation.

    Infantry Soldiers from Company B 1st Regiment 17th Infantry Division handed out goodies during a free medical screening was held for the local populace of Mawali by Iraqi doctors and U.S. Forces. The screening brought much needed medical supplies and assistance to the people of Mawali. The deteriorated conditions of the roads, due to the rainy season, that lead in and out of town are impassible by civilian vehicles. That caused the local doctor, Taha Ahamed, to reach out and ask for assistance from U.S. Forces. Photo by Army Spc. L.C. Campbell, Photojournalist, 138 Mobile Public Affairs Detachment.
