Mission #6 Photos

I know I have photos from my 5th mission still to put up, but I really like these. They were the first chance I've had to interact with the public and as you can see, the kids were definately excited to get the school supplies and toys that many of you have sent.

New visitors can get information about what I am collecting for our brigade to pass out to school-aged children in the Abu Ghraib neighborhood.

As I mentioned the main purpose of the mission was to provide medical care to the people in this village. The line was fairly long.

I don't know how many school supply packets were given out, but there were alot of kids and parents walking home with them.

Some soldiers got in on the fun, too.

The T-shirts say "Choose your future, Iraq!"

Me, with the same 2 kids, looking (and feeling) a bit like the Michelin man.

I only noticed this at the end, but we gave out a few of these home-made wheelchairs as well.
