Description

"Field Dentistry: Lieutenant J. R. Gassman (Pocatello, Idaho) removes the last particles of decay from a child’s tooth. Dental Technician C. M. Silverman (La Mesa, California) assists the doctor on their DENCAPs (dental civic action programs). One morning each week they travel into the rural area northwest of Da Nang to treat Vietnamese people. This boy is from the hamlet of Huong Phuoc, located in the westernmost sector of Marine Force Logistic Command’s civil affairs area. Gassman and Silverman are attached to the 7th Engineer Battalion, 1st Marine Division (official USMC photo by Lance Corporal R. K. Nystrom)."
