MOSUL, IRAQ - Spc. Lucas Crowe, a medic with HHC 172nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Battalion, 1st Infantry Regiment meets the family of the boy he helped save Dec. 17.

On Dec. 15 while patrolling the streets of Mosul for the Iraqi elections, Crowe resuscitated a boy who had drowned in a flooded basement of his home. The family was elated to see Crowe and thanked him for saving the child.

"I am extremely happy that the boy is doing well," Crowe stated, "It was great to see him and I wish him well".

The children in the family received gifts and clothes from the 401st Civil Affairs unit.
