    Military medical personnel are providing healthcare services to civilians in what appears to be a community medical assistance event held inside a sports arena or gymnasium. A female soldier in camouflage uniform with blue medical gloves is treating a patient's arm/wrist, while a male service member in tan and Navy digital camouflage attends to another patient's feet. The setting suggests a humanitarian medical outreach operation.

Matthew White, right, a nurse, both attached to the hospital ship USNS Comfort (T-AH 20), clean and bandage a woman’s wounded leg at a temporary medical treatment site in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Oct. 19, 2019. Comfort is working with health and government partners in Central America, South America, and the Caribbean to provide care on the ship and at land-based medical sites, helping to relieve pressure on national medical systems, including those strained by an increase in cross-border migrants.
