    Military personnel aboard a tactical vehicle are tossing small items, likely candy or small toys, to a large crowd of children and young people gathered alongside the vehicle. The scene appears to depict a civil affairs or community engagement interaction between soldiers and local civilians. The crowd is enthusiastically reaching upward to catch the distributed items against a clear blue sky backdrop.

    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.
