    A military medical personnel in camouflage uniform is providing medical treatment to a young shirtless male patient in what appears to be a medical facility or field hospital. The uniformed individual, whose name tag reads 'BARLOW,' is attending to the patient's hand or wrist area while wearing latex gloves. A surgical overhead light illuminates the scene, and an IV bag is visible in the background.

    171127-N-QM691-312 AMAZON RIVER, Brazil (Nov. 27, 2017) Lt. Cmdr. Thomas Barlow, a U.S. Navy doctor, cares for a 14-year-old indigenous boy aboard NAsH Soares de Meirelles on the Amazon River in Brazil, November 27. The boy had a gunshot wound in his hand. After the injury, the boy’s family had hailed NAsH Soares de Meirelles, which was passing along the river, and had used a small boat to bring him to the ship. Barlow is a member of a team of five U.S. Navy doctors who are engaging in a month-long humanitarian mission up the Amazon River. The team is working with the Brazilian Navy to deliver healthcare to some of the most isolated people in the world. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Andrew Brame/Released)
