First Lt. Michael White, platoon leader attached to Laghman Provincial Reconstruction Team, talks to an Afghan child while he provides security for his team at the Mehtar Lam hospital Aug. 24. The PRT visited the hospital for the first time since arriving in July and used the visit to ensure they had enough supplies and medical personnel on the staff. The Mehtar Lam hospital is the largest medical facility in Laghman and also draws patients all the way from Nuristan, more than 50 kilometers north.
