Description
English: "Center of Attention: Alfie, a two year-old Vietnamese girl who was suffering from malnutrition in a village orphanage near the Marine Air Base at Chu Lai, is the center of attention among the Navy corpsmen at the Marine Aircraft Group 12 [MAG-12] dispensary. The corpsmen unofficially adopted the youngster and nursed her back to good health. The men are, from left: Hospitalman 2d Class Jim Earl, 25 (Cottage Grove, Oregon); HM3 Joseph Wenzlick, 22 (Cloverdale, Ohio); Chief Hospitalman Ramon J. Flemming, 33 (Correctionville, Iowa); HM1 William Dennis, 41 (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania); and HM2 Terry L. Shrubb, 21 (Bradford, Pennsylvania) (official USMC photo by Staff Sergeant Jim Mims)."
