ALIBAH, Iraq – Task Force (TF) Automatic medics conducted a medical visit in Alibah, 20 kilometers west of the Tigris River, with 1/C/2-8 Field Artillery on June 27th.

The visit lasted over two hours and more than 30 men, women and children were treated.

“The village was very friendly and they enjoyed having us there,” said First Lt. Derek Loveland, 1st Platoon Leader. “Everyone from the village showed up, even if they didn’t need treatment.”

Medical visits are conducted about four to five times a month around the local villages. They not only assist in maintaining healthy citizens, they also strengthen the relationship between TF Automatic and the local Iraqis.
