Description
English: The Medical Civil Affairs Program or MEDCAP, Marines, soldiers, and sailors travel to the villages whose people lack basic medical care and treat as many civilians as possible. Many of the villages have no hospitals or clinics close by, and with no transportation, people often must go without medical treatment. Many of the problems faced by villagers are caused by a simple lack of sanitation, without cleaning and medicine little cuts become infected and lead to worse problems. Children are forced to drink out of the same streams that people and animals bathe in leading to gastrointestinal problems.
