With the Navy I'm the Desert
By Doris Kantsr

THE EGYPTIAN desert is
one Of the last places
you'd expect to flnd a unit
Of the United States Navy.
But there's one in operation
thereand has been since
1916.
It's Naval Medical Research
Unit No. 3, on the outskirts Of
Cairo, and, barring the un-
foreseen, it will remain until
1878.
NAMRU-3, as 1t is known,
was invited to Cairo by the
Egyptian government, which
offered the use Of II buildings
on q 21a-acre site adjacent to
the 1,OOO-bed Abbassia Fever
Hospital. The invitation was
accepted with alacrity, ac-
cording to Capt. ]. J. Sapero,
who returned to washington
recently after a tour Of duty
as medical director Of the
unit, because Of the Navyis
interest in tropical diseases.
It was an ideal place, from
our point Of view," says Capt.
sapero. TT gave US q chance
to study right in the heart Of
q disease ridden area which
Is close enough to q large
center to make establishing a
fully equipped unit feasible" "
Then, In 1948 the Egyptian
government agreed to lease
the land and buildings to the
Navy for IS years and
NAMRU-3 was remodeled and
expanded.
The unit today consists Of
20 buildings, housing labOra-
tories, clinical wards and q
medical library, as well as
administrative and mainte-
nance buildings. While nine
new buildings have been

the unit to lecture or to work
on specific problems.
Among the diseases under
continuing investigation by
the unit are cholera, Malta
and West Nile fevers, and
schistosomiasis "a blood dis
easel. While these diseases
occur in other parts Of the
world, they have plagued
Egypt In particular for cen
turieS.
In the case Of Malta fever,
concrete results Of NAMRU-3's
work have been to reduce the
percentage Of relapses from
20 to under IS per cent.
The unit, according to Capt.
Sapero, provided the first
known treatment of a human
case Of lice-borne typhus.
And it has succeeded in dem
onstrating the effectiveness
Of certain drugs In curing the
illness.
In addition to their work in
Cairo, NAMRU-3 scientists
have made expeditions to
other countries Of the Middle
East to help fight microscopic
enemies. They have gone to
Yemen, Sudan, Lebanon, Syria
and Libya in answer to calls
for help.
NAMRU-3, says Capt Sa-
pero, also has been doing good
work in the field Of inter-
national relations.
The Egyptian government,
he says, has given the unit
its full support and CO.
operation all the way. "And
no matter how violently the
various political parties have
disagreed among themselves"
he says, "they have all been
in favor Of NAAGRU-3."
