The medical teams located at Forward Operating Base Farah survey the x-rays taken of a civilian contractor from Nepal after he was wounded by an insurgent mine explosion, Jan. 24. The patient had numerous fractures in both of his legs and feet, which were treated in surgery by a Forward Surgical Team surgeon, U.S. Navy Cmdr. Todd Peterson, originally from Washington D.C. The FST and the Farah Provincial Reconstruction Team medical staff often provide life or limb saving procedures to a variety of patients, including injured local nationals and contractors who are wounded by insurgent attacks.
