A group of children takes a quick timeout during a Cooperative Medical Engagement event in as-Saqlawiyah, Iraq, Feb. 29. The event took place at the village schoolhouse and provided free medical care for 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 and are part of the Iraqi Women's Engagement program driven by the U.S. Department of State.
