An Iraqi woman and her four grandchildren receive medical care at a Cooperative Medical Engagement event in as-Saqlawiyah Feb. 29. The event provided free treatment to more than 200 civilians in the community. Iraqi culture discourages male-female interaction in public, so a female team provided care and posted security for women and children. The CME events are continuous throughout Al Anbar Province. The combined effort between Iraqi personnel and coalition forces is part of the Iraqi Women's Engagement program driven by the U.S. Department of State.
