Rwanda help
Capt. Christie Barton, an optometrist from Ramstein’s 435th Medical Group, exams a local Rwandan woman during a medical capabilities mission that five medics from around the command participated in recently. The group from Aviano and Ramstein performed eye and dental exams for nearly 1,000 refugees, and in conjunction with Rwandan Military Defense Force and the International Red Cross, they held medical seminars for approximately 50 local doctors as part of the two-week military-to-military operation.
