Pediatric cardiologist Dr. Khaled Salaymeh performs a pre-surgical exam on Dalal, an 8-year-old girl from Iraq's Anbar province, in Amman, Jordan, July 18, 2007. Salaymeh operated on Dalal July 23 to correct a life-threatening congenital heart defect. U.S. special operations forces played a major role in arranging travel so Dalal and her father could make the trip to Jordan, and a U.S. Army civil affairs noncommissioned officer arranged for Dalal to have the lifesaving surgery at no cost.
